lyrics

Consent is just a word
And your actions just have full consequence
For the mouths left unheard
From a lust that could not be fed
Morals are elementary
Even then, a child knows between
No and gently

But you've forced the skin of one
And when together become many
This is a chant of unity
For the scapegoats of the plenty

A predator's repression
Stockholm lies impotent
In beds of great recessions
A plummet of their lips
See the scapegoats coincide with the lambs
In crevices greener than envious demands

Grotesque doctrines
Allow such a man
A butchers slaughter
There's blood on your hands!

Bleats of desire
Turned absence of care
While they're told to be quiet
They're told to beware

But you have forced the skin of one
And when together become many
This is a chant of unity
For the scapegoats of the plenty
