Strains of Brutality Lyrics

Institutionalized of misanthropic attitudes,
A mechanism for the propagation
Of socially dysfunctional patterns of thought and behavior
Limited our capacity for compassion.

Subjected to abusive chronic thoughts
Become the norm in this hostile system
At one with the aggressor

Distaste of humanity, strains of brutality

Imbued—absorbed in their cult
Subserve—their leader's exult

Strains of brutality, distaste of humanity

Imbued—absorbed in their cult
Subserve—their leader's exult

A piece of our humanity is lost
Warping our sense of identity to deny
Our inner wounds

Strains of brutality, distaste of humanity

Religions—institutionalized,
Flawed rationalizations of human suffering,
Fostered disassociation from human identity,
Impaired natural empathy and compassion

It is time to supersede traditions that we have outgrown...
And disown

Revulsion!
