lyrics

Quiet. Hush. The monsters are speaking
Into us – are we just microphones?
Who is here -- who is here that lends amplifying
To these tones -- to these tones -- never quite breathing?

Write it all down. Teach it in school:
Socialist Bad and Capitol Cool;
Frozen assets for desire --
Spend it all too.

Silly girl – you‟re not here for breeding,
Or slaving, or silence – you gotta be brave.
Don‟t be a tool – don‟t be a tool; never give up living.
I remember their rules. I remember their rules – how a collar is made.

The growling hard days spattered with smiles.
Moving through the weekends, and marred afternoons.
Step by step, she worked with you,
Even when you tried to go on your own, and now she is alone.
You cut her to pieces, her dreams and her reasons for working and living;
So damn hard -- So damn hard -- So Damn Hard.
Then nothing lines up, and nobody cares, and she is still here
After all these years.

Write it all down -- teach it in school:
Socialist Bad; and Capitol Cool;
Frozen assets for desire --
Spend it all too.
Work until tired. Work until dead.
Swarming like flies, and dropping like lead --
Worn and blue.

I want a road. I want an aeroplane --
Bombs that explode outside my memory lane.
I want disease in other countries.
I‟m down on my knees -- Prayin‟ -- Prayin‟.
