Lyrics
Intro
Ripped
Ripped
Ripped from my hands
Verse 1
They tax the air I breathe
Every breath a fee
Paper promises bleed
My labor feeds the machine
I signed my name in good faith
Watched it vanish overnight
Bureaucratic hands take
What was never theirs to take
Pre-Chorus
Line by line they steal
Line by line they lie
Every clause a blade
Buried in my side
Chorus
You take and take and take
You take and take and take
I gave you everything
You gave me nothing back
You take and take and take
You take and take and take
Gutted clean and hollow
Left me bleeding in the black
Post-Chorus
Drained
Drained
Left me drained
Verse 2
Promises in suits and ties
Smiling while they pick my pockets
Ledgers built on stolen lives
Sealed with wax and quiet profits
I watched my wages disappear
Into halls I'll never enter
Every year a tighter noose
Every year a colder winter
Pre-Chorus
Line by line they steal
Line by line they lie
Every clause a blade
Buried in my side
Chorus
You take and take and take
You take and take and take
I gave you everything
You gave me nothing back
You take and take and take
You take and take and take
Gutted clean and hollow
Left me bleeding in the black
Breakdown
Robbed
Robbed
Robbed blind
Robbed
Robbed
Robbed blind
Bridge
I built this with my hands
I built this with my blood
And you signed it all away
And you signed it all away
Chorus
You take and take and take
You take and take and take
I gave you everything
You gave me nothing back
You take and take and take
You take and take and take
Gutted clean and hollow
Left me bleeding in the black
Post-Chorus
Drained
Drained
Left me drained
