From nameless graves we rise

Blessed by the worms

Wound within the flesh

The skin (the skin) that flakes from our rotten bones

The last remnants of our once human form

Outcasts sacrificed for silver and gold

Names and faces you’d once hoped to forget

Now compelled by endless revenge

As in life, so in death and again in rebirth

Abomination

We are reborn, abomination

We are reborn

Into this existence we are torn

Engulfed by irreparable trauma

Against all odds we are sworn to move forth

Despite this man made hell

Perpetual systematic flaws are exposed

Human life cast aside

The highest ivory towers we will climb

Silver spoons once used to quell the endless hunger

Now used to remove your vital organs

Bear witness to the lust for horror

You so carelessly designed

Dragging you down to walk this earth you’ve scorched

Like everything once good in this life

You too shall burn

Antiquated, disparate

Patriarchal madness

A disjointed, mangled mess of flesh

Is all that we seek to leave behind

Remnants of the executed

Left soaking in the sun

A warning to our future leaders

A message to all those

Who may try to oppress us

As our dead hands rise in revolution

Perpetual systematic flaws are exposed

Human life cast aside

The highest ivory towers we will climb
