lyrics

Feel their tears drip
On your fingertips.
And wipe the blood off your lips.

This is the price of privilege.

Hear them scream in fright,
Lying awake at night,
Fearing for their lives.

Human sacrifice for the rich.

Don’t go to sleep.
Don’t you dream.
Don’t even close
Your privileged eyes.
‘Cus they are dying.

This is not some maudlin appeal to emotion;
This is a direct appeal to morality.
We must ask ourselves:
Have we lost our humanity?

Can’t you sense their pain?
Don’t you feel?
Do you even care?

See the bombs fly.
Do they not have rights?
We can no longer deny it;
Face it: we’re all parasites.

Open your eyes.
Wake up from the dream
You’ve been living.
Open your eyes
To a ravished world.

Face it:
We are all…

Parasites.
Admit guilt:
We’re all parasites,
In this ravished world.
