Tears of the Kokaubeam Lyrics

Part of living is dealing with pain

Sometimes mental is worse than the physical

Things go wrong and the people you love are lost

Others won't do what you want them to

Well, that's fine

Let them do what they will

After all

Control was always an illusion

And just suffering is real

I was strapped to a cold metal pole and watched

While my life was changed

Without my say

While someone behind me

Peeled the skin off my back

Control was always an illusion

And just suffering is real

My sweat and my blood

Wrung from my flesh

To make drinks for the rich and the powerful

That drink was called Kokaubeam

Lights like stars swirling as tears

Control was always an illusion

And just suffering is real
