Lyrics

Just skin and bone,
these truths of our needs
Show not when they have grown hungry
I’ve only gone
backward or toward the edge
At a pace that they have set
Fabric of an oppressive system, threaded together
By margin-bound, Dickensian stitches, the redliner
Designed to seep through the cracks
Following all the voices lost in the air
Calling into a void they all will disappear
And it is a shameful system, calculated
Reroute to nowhere, designed despair
Following all the voices lost in the air
They disappear
Invisible,
these lines that divide us
Yet strong enough to contain us
So powerful,
our marginal captor
Our escape the steepest of ladders
Fabric of an oppressive system threaded together
By margin-bound, Dickensian stitches, the redliner
Hierarchical fashion
Following all the voices lost in the air
Calling into a void they all will disappear
It is a deceitful system they’ve engineered
Roads to nowhere, designed despair
Following all the voices lost in the air
They disappear
No one can hear,
faces unclear
The only space left open
Is through the cracks of a broken
Road to nowhere,
To nowhere, to nowhere
Invisible, we’re hidden in plain view
Unseen, unheard, we’re hidden in plain view
Following all the voices lost in the air
Calling into a void they all will disappear
It is a deceitful system they’ve engineered
Roads to nowhere, designed despair
Following all the voices lost in the air
They disappear
No one can hear, no one’s listening
Faces unclear, no one’s looking or listening
The only space left open
Is through the cracks of a broken
Road to nowhere,
To nowhere, to nowhere
