The sun ablaze in the eye that sits blinded Bonded to the hand that sits minded The unborn locked away In a factory owning the everlasting day Stolen and caged then left to bleed While the suits of slow death are smothered in greed Through cobwebs of life they sift Stripped by the hand in the iron fist Whipped by the piercing eyes of the overseer The ministry of love martyred its breeder Shackled to the factory floor in chains of emptiness Sweating the toil that robs them lifeless As dawn floods the dusty moors These frozen lines ascend at factory doors While across faraway forbidden shores Sheep flock to incarcerating stores |
