lyrics

Your life is sacred
You’ve carried water to this dying land
You are the sons and daughters
Of a market in demand
Born in abject failure
Shepherded into this world
On a righteous platter
Sold to the highest wounded bidder
Commodify the misery of people trapped beneath the wheels
Capitalize on the pleas of broken people cutting deals

And so the angels of love are gutted by their grief
And the guardians of sacred love are fleeced beyond belief

So the cycle starts again and the lawyers have their drink
And the families enjoy their victory by groveling in the street
Can we make the miracle of life more disgusting?

Is there any element of life that isn’t worth exploiting?
Perhaps there is a job no one wishes to be appointed?

Because the baby selling business is never ending
So much pain, so much money
So much shame, so much money
Blood, shame, greed, indifference
An ethical alternative to child trafficking
Take my love, take my money
A different kind of empty
Take my money
