Toe the Line 01:32
All is for all! If the man and the woman bear their fair share of work, they have a right to their fair share of all that is produced by all, and that share is enough to secure them well-being. No more of such vague formulas as "The Right to work," or "To each the whole result of his labour." What we proclaim is The Right to Well-Being: Well-Being for All! -Peter Kropotkin

The Purge 02:04
Reduced to numbers on a page Nothing but means to a profit We sell ourselves in order to survive Losing our time and minds and our lives There's no justice in a selfish system Greed and lies as a means to success Wealth concentrates in the hands of a few While the rest fight to get the scraps Feed the machine with the sweat of your brow Dreams burned with napalm rain Lives crushed with the promise of progress Feed the machine Feed the machine Break the chains that tie us down Break the spokes of the wheel Break the pillar of wealth and power Break it all Break it all We’re held down by the chains that confine us While the vultures circle overhead We have nothing to lose and the world to gain Better act before we wind up dead

Fragile 03:29
What’s so hard to understand Tell me So I can shove it back in your face Why won’t it get to your head Like your ego does? Why won’t it get to your head There is no zero sum Fragile So fragile Your sense of self Dependent on your station There is nothing we can lose Only that others gain What does it hurt To extend a little decency? You and I are so alike But they are not so different
4.
Ascribe meaning to abstractions Based on faith, desperate reaction The pulpit bids, “Spread my word” And you do so without question We're all composites of every thought that we’ve had Blood greases the gears of the machine You crank the levers grinding down Upon all who refuse to listen All who refuse to listen I’ll be an iron rod in your spokes The stone that shatters the stained glass Watch as the shards rain down And shred the dreams of the flock
5.
Can you feel it This dogma thrust upon you Recognize it Wool lies heavy over your eyes Step outside it Breach the walls within your mind
