lyrics

Oh, am I born to die
Walking in circles, waiting to cry
Oh, am I born to scream
After so many days, the cold gets less mean

No dignity in life, no dignity in death
Take away my kin, bash in my babies' heads
No room to move my legs, so I stay down instead
Until they slit my throat and package me in sheds

Soon my bones will become flutes
Soon I will be something to do
Soon my eyes will not gaze at the moon
Soon my flesh will nourish you
Your greed leaves you starving!
Your greed leaves you starving!
Pray that pain will leave me soon
Soon my flesh will nourish you

Oh, am I born to feed
Rawness of skin
Is it not a sin
To feel excitement as I bleed?
Oh am I born to die
Fatten my thighs
To nickel and dime
Too heavy to walk or to fly

Soon my bones will become flutes
Soon I will be something to do
Soon my eyes will not gaze at the moon
Soon my flesh will nourish you
Your greed leaves you starving!
Your greed leaves you starving!
Pray that pain will leave me soon
Soon my flesh will nourish you
