Cimelia Pelf Lyrics


Likened to a bull, tenaciously red with hatred

yet patient for the gain in a muscular mode of deception

pulling the wool for unequal exchange

flaying generations to immiseration

Cimelia - bejeweled gold

fanciful disbelief becomes you

as you look upon halls of wealth

with the watery impoverished eyes of children

heed! Their cup runneth over…

while thy table bespoke famine

heed! They rest on the laurels of slave masters

While thy calloused hands carry aged burden

heed! Breath deep, a judicious air

The wall grows long…longer still…

visions of gore in the vengeance waking

vortex of misery, unsheathed hatred quaking

inverted oppression in the violent expulsion

intransigent reprisal, unyielding convulsion

Breath deep, a judicious air

Lungs filtering sleeves of gold

Vomiting righteousness and equity

As the wall grows longer

Yes, it too, warms… tenaciously red
