Limbless I Keep Reaching

Crack the whip, crack the old world
Ships roll in, ships roll out, the commerce of genocide
Around, around the middle passage

A continent scrambled and chained, marked Protectorate
Scourge of the triangular trade, maimed aboard the "Guineamen"
Limbless!

Let it rot, let it fester
Ignore the pain, ignore the shame and bury it deep inside
Where you are going it won't matter

Hands aplenty cut off and piled, heads skewered sky-high
The demigod of Stanley Falls, deep inside the "Heart of Darkness"
Limbless!

Monsieur Léon Rom, gallows and shackles when in Rome
Only freedom - Flowerbed
Decapitation - phantom pain?
Mutilate or Enslave?
"The Horror, The Horror"
