Safeguard the Children (Lyrics)

Their perilous poisons Stupefying the youth Neutralized with bombs or boredom Phantoms cinching up the noose Collecting tracks like model trains They fucking pulled it off! The music’s fast but the message tame They fucking pulled it off! A hushed retreat into hobbyism They fucking pulled it off! Gassed the guards, but left the prisons They fucking pulled it off! Culture kept in a cardboard box Saved the cadaver but forgot the heart When capital takes the vital parts The body will go cold Frozen corpse caught in your throat You must take action soon For simulated resistance Will only secure the tomb When the vendors own our history It's scattered bones a mystery A preservation society Whose body has gone cold With the record severed from the real Soft-whip serve for mass appeal When aesthetic is just anesthetic They’ve taken you alive (But I wouldn’t say they spared my life) Slaughter truth to skin the youth Of their much-valued authentic hides Sell your children for cookie crumbs At least moloch knows who’s on his side You’ve gotta read past what you’ve heard Reject roles that they tailor-make to use Every single word It’s never too late behind enemy lines (Wrought by design) To push the substance behind Every single word that you feel
