Songtext von Resident

Predator and prey The wolf grinds its steel teeth In a false twilight, the night came so long ago When children were domesticated and caged in white rooms A helpless herd to wringing hands His back dented with high-heels Cleaved into the meat of his shoulders Breast-fed toxic waste, the umbilical noose Born into death, neglected battered and wasting away Fight or flight is only in open air Fright and flight on the inside So many hands eager to hold you down often until your breathing will cease Your cries heard by deaf ears - just as the walls of concrete Profit maker. Human livestock. Misery harvest Bow to our monetary god, Child servant Broken beaten and scarred You sleep under the watchful eye of strangers Profit off of your tiny back. Paying the bills of philanthropists Your wretched reality There is no one in whom you believe Your god is your own Now I will tuck you into sleep
