The Vegan Straight Edge by CLEARXCUT Lyrics
We oppose this system. We'll cut through the crap
Telling the truth is a revolutionary act
This world is dying, there is no light
With the needed resistance nowhere in sight
Through our fingers trickles sand, the time has come to take a stand
We will build the resistance from whatever comes to our hands:
Whispers and tears, history and dreams
From our bravest words to our loudest screams
From protest to resistance by all means
We are living beings not dead machines
The revolution lives, sure enough
Even a broken heart is made of love
While this is a song about fighting back
We are silent vanguards - ready to attack
This is about compassion
We won’t ever see our world crashing
In too many dawns we will feel lost
We'll have to go on anyway and at all costs
So gather your heart and fight with every living being
For a poisonfree world, eternal justice and freedom
“Anarchism is the attempt to eradicate domination. This includes not only such obvious forms as the nation-state, with its routine use of violence and the corporation, with its institutionalized irresponsibility, but also such internalized forms as patriarchy, racism and homophobia.“ - John Zerzan
In this age of darkness, I see a light
We won't back down we’ll continue to fight
Strength arising from despair will strike the match
