Plato's Tripartite

I forgot to thank you for the blood you shed, And your obligatory contribution to the community. Are you just dense or so fuckin' inbred You think that all is forgiven and all is forgotten? But forgive them of nothing, despite their impunity. Oh how the system fails you completely When monstrous children get treated so sweetly.

What more could a lady ask for than to be treated like a hole? Oh how the system fails you completely When monstrous children get treated so sweetly. Standing before you in suit and tie, Don't they just look so nice? (So nice) Well-practiced tears come to their eyes, "I guess their remorse will suffice." (Will suffice) That's when they lock up, That's when they lock up your bones, That's when they lock up, Femininity infected with the illusion that choice, choice is Freedom is delicate, cracking under abject catastrophe.

When we hand raise the beast, and the beast runs wild, We must speak of our own involvement in the rape of a child. It's irrelevant, her relation to me. No one is innocent if they go free. No one is innocent if they go free. That's when they lock up, That's when they lock up your bones, That's when they lock up, Femininity infected with the illusion that choice, choice is --- Plato's Tripartite - Protest the Hero
