Distress Index, “The Eaters and the Eaten” Lyrics

Historical methods ensnared within the financial grip
Little children slaved by the wage and the whip
Our lifestyle crushed, as our lives drown in work
Is that this what we’re to assume {that a} human life is value?

Burned out fields and damaged, black factories
Echoing the names of the useless who got here earlier than me
Who yearns to breathe this acrid, acid air?
Who amongst us bleeds for a greater life past despair?

Eaters and eaten, deathwork, so nauseating
Grasp and servant, deathwork immiserating

The eaters and the eaten, eaten alive
Hours spent within the shadow of the mill
Days flip to weeks as our lifeblood spills

Burned out fields and damaged, black factories
Echoing the names of the useless who got here earlier than me

Eaters and eaten, deathwork, so nauseating
Grasp and servant, deathwork immiserating

From the uncommon earth mine, to the longshore line
Survival is a burden, that we can’t relent
The eaters and the eaten, eaten alive
Hours spent within the shadow of the mill
Days flip to weeks as our lifeblood spills

Falling by way of the cracks, we convey down the anvil of dissent
From ash-caked eyes, thousand-mile stares
Gaze upon a world the place this technique is extinct and nevermore
