Bought & Sold - Wolfgang

In the family of the free but the freedom drags

A bitter taste amidst all it’s harmony

Look deep inside comfort and security

Breed sick infected minds

Who feed on lust and ecstasy

Battered bodies shattered dreams

Lining the streets no end to the means

Crippled corpses vandalized souls

Degraded penetrated beaten down

Bought and sold

Pied piping foreigners arrive each day

To blindly lead the innocent

Toward their indecent ways

Branded children who only see

The money and toys

Supposedly given for free

Outlined bodies

Littered dreams

Lining the streets

No end to the means

Riddled corpses

Violated souls

When you’re degraded

Penetrated

Beaten down

Bought and sold

Oh my brother

How do you explain

Being tied to yourself

Wrapped in bundles of pain

No longer my brother

What pleasures ar left to gain

Look deep inside yourself

Wrapped in bundles of pain

Into everyday blindly we see

The power of the dollar

And the other currencies

Is the money they make

Worth the price that they pay

It doesn’t really matter

When there’s one born everyday

Battered bodies shattered dreams

Lining the streets no end to the means

Crippled corpses vandalized souls

Degraded penetrated

Beaten down bought and sold

Once again the night arrives

As I bleed the tears of sorrow

This can’t be all to expect from life

I’ll pray for better things tomorrow
