Late Stage Harm Reduction Lyrics

The watchers watch them drift away Fading into sunsets and sinking into the horizon With remnants of a lifetime packed up in small bags Despair driven migration and a risk of death or loved ones dying Dodging western bombs, starvation and endless war The hegemon's warpath stays amplified, harm reducers close their eyes and scream four more Years pass with increased power structure devotion, while the entire world becomes a violent ocean Made to drown us all No places safe spaces when greed develops and manipulates the land We work for less our money funds our own troubles Untenability, tent cities, cleared away despite unpopular demand We work for less in the name of faux progress We simp for convenience at the world's expense Maritime Border security priorities shift to track and observe Swift and underreported human rights abuses of the unheard An unseen hellscape they never deserved, delivered from selfish hands with a deadly cost Desperate operations as a byproduct of foreign policies with the gloves off The chase for every resource for capital is a catastrophic knife wound The taste for bloodlust and power leaves the have-nots removed or sent to their graves Blown away by munitions sent to madmen for special interest proxy gain The tides that roll back in will take us all in waves No places, safe spaces when greed develops and manipulates the land We work for less, our money funds our own troubles Untenability, tent cities cleared away despite unpopular demand We work for less in the name of faux progress We've normalized apathy and callousness Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go Everyone needs a place to go, Capsized lives sink to depths unknown Drones circle above while flesh and homes turn to ashes below The watchers' eyes remain stoic and cold Land grabs through intervention for more resource control Everyone needs a place to go, free to stay free to move Our lives intertwined by the watchers' reign over capital Everyone needs a place to go, free to stay free to move Free to live without fear of the watchers' rule Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go Everyone needs a place to go, everyone needs a place to go The earth is washed bought and sold into its death throes As we hum along to its swan song with our eyes closed
