Trial - Are These Our Lives? lyrics

rate me

under the ruins of a paradise never to be known

crushed beneath the feet of gods who reap what we have sown

as the industrial neo-fascists slash and burn through flesh

endorse the individual and sacrifice the rest

I want the truth to be told

that we are more than the sum of what we're sold

social darwinist manipulation

multilateral agreement for the devastation of all but the hegemon

while we as one are sacrificed on the altar...

in the age of the refugee

this era of death for profit

ideas alone will minimize the fringe

organization can enhance empowerment

against forced abortions sterilizations clitoridectomy aberrations

oil addiction inculcation while alternatives face negation

by those who anesthetize the mind and invest in broken lives

disorganize overpower exploit and stratify

the distorted promise of a free exchange haunts us through the debts we pay

to the alliances who turn me against all those around me and against myself

generation after generation enduring apocalyptic visions

in individual private hells with bodies weak and minds distorted with nothing left to sell

while the masters of the new feudal age drink to satisfy an unquenchable thirst

gulping our blood and our sweat and spit back lies

are these our lives?<br />

<br />
