lyrics
BORN WITH BLOODIED HANDS. Born with bloodied hands – carnivore children conform. Torn between two lies – hypocrisy stains us all. Raised to rape this land – jackboot tradition ensured. Praised for playing lambs – silently put to the sword… killing the ones who trust us. And silicon(e) sirens are singing, “Greed is good!” A sacred trust, betrayed by us – children left to bleed to death. Our will be done, we eat our young – and ignorance feeds off itself… right! Torn by bloodied fangs – computer children comply. Pawns to sacrifice – helping us to live this lie. Crazed by culture shocks – dazzled acceptance of fate. Braised, our darling steaks – gratefully we lick our plates… wasting the ones who’ll save us. And cynical sirens are singing, “Greed is good, good is bad, want for things you can never have. Don’t resist – just exist. Keep consuming and make us rich!” A sacred trust, betrayed by us – children left to bleed to death. Our will be done, we eat our young – and ignorance feeds off itself. And ignorance feeds off itself…
