lyrics

Captivity Is Cruelty

Take something wild and free
Master of slaves
Classified and certified to die
Forever bound in chains
Never to walk the land
Nor fly high in the sky
No lessons learned, no purpose served
What a fucking way to die

Domestication, possession
Bordering upon obsession
Conservation, collection
Warped ideas of affection

Better to live and coexist with nature for a day
Than a pestilent existence of a lifetime in a cage

Take something beautiful
Conquerors of all
Their misery knows no boundaries
Inside the prison walls
Never to breathe the air
Nor swim beneath the waves
Preserved, observed, perverse, absurd
Not in my name

Fascination, frustration
Justify our domination
How horrific, terrific
Suffering is scientific

Better to live and coexist with nature for a day
Than a pestilent existence of a lifetime in a cage

Captivity is cruelty the ends don’t justify the means
No one has authority to inflict pain and misery
Genocide and slavery, the darkest days of history
But it’s still fucking happening right now they’re suffering
