Lifeline - Napalm Death

Through innocent minds the knife glides in

Cutting the lifeline to sanity

Replacing lives with possessions and greed

Like blind children we search frantically

Our hands claw the air for peace and light

But we’re offered just blackness and rage

A new life screams as it takes its first breath

Soon trapped in its ready-made cage

Its hands claw the air for peace and light

Yet it’s offered just blackness and rage

Through innocent flesh the knife glides in

Cutting the life-line with ease

Replacing life with the foul stench of death

On the fresh blood they now start to feed

They’ve taken the earth as they now take the life

Cold concrete replaces warm soil

We sit in the corners, minds twisted with fear

For a world we shall soon see no more
