They've put your body on a wall, Left it hanging, ***** your soul. Put your tongue betwixt your teeth, Take a breath and bite it deep. Brave it out, don't even moan. Whisper not a single tone, Lest your jailers you should wake, Lest this freedom they should take. Defiantly lay your head low, Just spit the flesh and let blood flow, For you're released from the throes. And as you're bleeding, hung and dry, Sing to yourself this lullaby: "I am free and as such I die."

THE ONLY ACT OF FREEDOM
They've put your body on a wall, Left it hanging, ***** your soul. Put your tongue betwixt your teeth, Take a breath and bite it deep. Brave it out, don't even moan. Whisper not a single tone, Lest your jailers you should wake, Lest this freedom they should take. Defiantly lay your head low, Just spit the flesh and let blood flow, For you're released from the throes. And as you're bleeding, hung and dry, Sing to yourself this lullaby: "I am free and as such I die."
