lyrics

They talk about law and order, but who do those things serve? Who sat comfortable behind locked doors composing the codes, and whose order is served by their enforcement? Whose lives have no place in the world they imply? The agents who embody the law, cocooned within menacing armor, wielding the weapons of war, who do they answer to and who becomes the subject of their wrath? The law is never neutral, and one’s order is another’s cage. Law and order: These words are a thieves’ cant for those who will steal your humanity and sell it back for the cheapest illusion of security. These words are weapons. Bullets to quell an uprising. Dirt to pour on the graves of those we sacrifice on their altar. And when those words are uttered, you find out too late if you’re the one pointing the gun, or the one who is staring down the barrel.
