capstan - bête noire lyrics

[verse 1]
why so cruel a fate as this?
to recognize a broken system
i further just to exist
to have my eyes still open
while my body’s so lifeless

[pre+chorus]
our future so dire, now let us all pray
the dollar our altar, american way

[chorus]
say “hail to the thief,” united in greed
and f+ck over anyone just to succeed
you say nothing’s owed but they who control
will never let go until we pick through their bones

[verse 2]
they monetize both war and victim
and profit from sickness
we slowly die just getting by while
the wealthy rape children
knock it down and start from pavement
even though a privileged statement
i won’t stand its abatement
it won’t be offered, it must be taken
[pre+chorus]
our future so dire, now let us all pray
the dollar our altar, american way

[chorus]
say “hail to the thief,” united in greed
and f+ck over anyone just to succeed
you say nothing’s owed but they who control
will never let go until we pick through their bones
’cause if this way was right, why are we so far gone?
we say what is owned and they who control
will never let go until we pick through their bones

[bridge]
tear limb from f+cking limb
and feel the blood in your t++th
one day they’ll leave us no choice
we are a cornered beast

[breakdown]
we’ve starved while they feast
while they feast
we are all incomplete, i’ve got no remedy
but we’re all sick and i think everybody sees
what do you see?
[chorus]
say “hail to the thief,” united in greed
and f+ck over anyone just to succeed
you say nothing’s owed but they who control
will never let go until we pick through their bones
’cause if this way was right, why are we so far gone?
we say what is owned and they who control
will never let go until we pick through their bones
