Lyrics
The young ones can't believe they woke up
The younger generation is incredulous upon waking up.
Soul punishing reminder
Feeling a deep emotional punishment.
This world's so fucked up
Expressing extreme disillusionment with the state of the world.
Money over everything
Valuing money above all else.
Assembly line keeps its function
An industrial process continues to operate efficiently.
They feast we famine away
They (the privileged) thrive while others (the disadvantaged) suffer.
Light a candle for your future
Symbolic act of hope for the future.
Drop a match for unrelenting war
Symbolic act of acknowledging and perpetuating relentless conflicts.
Play out their lies and fantasies
Living out fabricated falsehoods and unrealistic desires.
May they know the pain and set it free
Wishing for those responsible for pain to understand and release it.
Power to those who fight the fight
Empowering those engaged in challenging struggles.
Defend nature be regained
Advocating for the protection and restoration of nature.
Loved us so much, the needy suffer?
Questioning why those who supposedly love us allow the suffering of the needy.
If there is god then god is cruel
Suggesting that if there is a god, that entity is unkind.
Born of terror full of lust
Being born into a world full of fear and desire.
Deplete and dismay
Consume and distress.
Play out their lies and fantasies
Living out fabricated falsehoods and unrealistic desires (repeated line).
May they know the pain and set it free
Wishing for those responsible for pain to understand and release it (repeated line).
Power to those who fight the fight
Empowering those engaged in challenging struggles (repeated line).
Defend our own and be regained
Advocating for the protection and restoration of what belongs to us (repeated line).
Save us from life
Expressing a desire to be rescued from the difficulties of life.
