there was trauma,
there were overwhelming signs
of a struggle
there was torture
and this human dignity,
it was nowhere to be seen
oh the only thing we do,
is just quietly obey,
hoping it will grant us some delay
then we bite into the boils,
just to keep this beast at bay,
hoping to prolong our sorry stay
our leprosy
won’t keep us out of harm’s way
this is all your making,
this is all your fault
is this what you came here for?
there was carnage
out for everyone to see,
it was systematic
oh there is no chance in hell
at a perfect getaway,
this is the stage of disarray
as the claw opens your vein
and your faith begins to sway,
you’ll accept this price we have to pay
