this torture was born in Ohio
protected by a big, fine man
the garden had roses, everyone was fat
the prisoners couldn't speak
so they had no complaints
I've been past Torquemada's Spain
it was crude to the ways I live now
the rack! the wheel! the red hot irons!
fire's to burn
and water's to drown
torture and agony are relative things
eventually they can only be so bad
mankind's been around for thousands of years
we fuck the same as aeons ago...
Found these East Bay soon to be legends in my wishlist from last month and quickly bought all three releases on Bandcamp. Y'all rock hard! Keep the Transpunk scene alive! Oh yeah, I picked Mia as my fave mostly because it's the middle nameseke if my chosen/given name after the singer of Its Bad to Kill But Not to Die before he transitioned. aliss_blackout_hrt_bandits
