lyrics

A shot gut, dry and bare, still hurts a tempered soul withered. But what a lick of salt is worth to a throat in reverse; one by one, consuming in the incline, gripping on their insides— a mass decline. Who mends the atrophy, receding on the concrete helplessly.

How could the weak rebel, how could the starved kill? How should the weak rebel, how should the starved kill? With pestilence and famine and dissented cries of liberty— tell me how would the weak rebel? How would the starved kill?

To pigs the worst has yet to come. The boys in blue, the soil's scum; it's you or me six feet deep.
