Velvet Hooks Lyrics

Taking my child, taking my baby
They stomped his head, slaughtered his body
Another day scraping my bars
Another day grinding my teeth

Giving up is long past due but
They still find purpose in my grief

Rape me, looking away
Crush my mind and lick my skin
Make me your whore, keep me alive, to slay me yourself
I can't see you, you can't see me
But I am you, and you are me

There will be no mutiny
Not from their side, not from ours
The veil that separates us
Is transparent yet tear-proof

Famine, coming our way
Rewarding our brutality
Hypocrisy, and contradiction, are what we must be
They don't need us, we don't need them
But they are us, and we are them
