People of the Abyss Lyrics by Louise Distras

Dreams from the Factory Floor

2013

You write your song
And tell an eternal tale of slavery
In your bitterest voice
Rich man rich life
Stripped bare you pay by your poverty
Your sun knows no sky
Your rags are their riches
In your sorrow they take pride
Struggle to survive
If you lose faith and all that is left to believe
Bringing salvation to it's knees
We all live we all cry then you work until you die
We all live we all cry then you work until you die
You are living in a fallen world that prays for resurrection
Your heart sings of hidden darkness in the dying day
Doing right with wrong on a burning cross
Living alone in fear and hate
Living alone in fear and hate
If you lose faith and all that is left to believe
Bringing salvation to it's knees
And if you should fall from grace and have nothing left to believe
Bring exploitation to it's knees
And if your people break down these walls
Bringing salvation to it's knees
Then you work until you die
Then you work until you die
If you should fall from grace and have nothing left to believe
Bring exploitation to it's knees
