Cost of living:
What can we afford
To starve to death peacefully
I can't afford to live
They don't want us to live

Our National Tragedy

I see the burning schools (we are strung together)
I see the burning schools
I see it all feel it all
I feel the burning ruse
I see it all i feel it all
Slabs of metal, paper
Destroy me when you take her
We are still enslaved
In golden sheets, you hate her
We are strung together
With a bow that's too sharp
Rosin made from liars
Waving colors i cant trust
We all sleep together
In a bed made of sand
They push us off the beaches
Drown us on the land
A celebrated tragedy
Repeated tries to failure
We sing our theme, our rhapsody
We all saw him rape her
We keep melting away
Like teardrops on a flower
Sing our lullaby, stay
Were locked up without power
Your towns are all collapsing
But you want to eat the sun
A battle where we all sing
And won't be ever won
You took everything
And i'll never be your son
You drugstore hypocrites
I'll never drink you balm
I'm not proud to be here
And soon you won't be either
You will bleed from your spleen
And soon you won't be either
Cont./Symphony On Broken Glass
We stole all your pearls and gems
Now we take your guns
Loosen up our perfect sense
You don't get to interrupt
We survived the chair
We survived the needle
You will see what's fair
And you won't feel neither
Enough of all the bleakness
We scare away your clouds
It's time we finally witness
Taking back our mouths
There won't be a list of demands
You will all suffer
Slavery wasn't a choice
And your life won't be either
We hang on to each other
And described our pain
Efrim told us how to
Make our own way
Why did you gift me anger
It makes me want to hang her
Why did hang her
I am still killing her
Tape found in snow B (speech)
The protests shook hands with bridges who fell again
We march and glasses of churches shatter
It used to be a reactor
Our protests all fail
And our marches lead nowhere
We will never be like them
I truly wish we had rights
The parliament’s on fire
But theres no one inside
Mountain city, castle
the metropolis is disconnected
the roads are all laced with oil
And our cigarettes with herbal
And our teachers hang from city hall
The danube remains black
But our blood drowns the screams
Your ship has sunk
Its time to pass
You were our national tragedy
Call us by our names (chant)
****** takarodj!
meaning:
Chanting the name of a misogynistic anti-abortion politician calling on him to leave office
Incubator
The chain bridges riddles are an unwritten endorsement of clarity
The mountain haunts the chains that keep it down
This is where i was born
And they will trample over my body
Kevin whispers beautiful lies
Of a dark future already here
We drift through mud like broken stars
Catching blood in frozen glass
I am the worried fire
But our hearts beat as one

Protest song
They throw us in the river
What do we see
All our fellow corpses
Floating at sea
You won't control us longer
We are taking control
With guns in our mouths we say our truths
Of who were are and why we matter
Why you can't beat us forever
They hang us by our genitals
But we hang on to each other
When we get united
It's a wonderful thing
So be afraid were coming
we can't be silenced forever
Your fucked up country comedy
Will be laid off us for forever
Protest song (chant)
Semmit rólunk nélkülünk!
meaning:
“nothing about us without us” calling out all the laws made about abortions and lgbtqia+ people made by cis straight men
We women:
Speech 1 (translation):
I'm gonna step over here because these are now my words i'm not talking on behalf of any association, today I realized I want to share this personal story, a personal opinion on this stage
I am not affected as much by the abortion law for a lucky reason, because i am a lesbian. Before i knew that having sex with women is better than with men, i've been with men enough to know that responsibility and pressure that comes after every sexual act for a woman, i know what it's like trying to find pills during the weekend in a small town, trying to find a solution, and rolling my life in front of me thinking what if… An besides this, i'd like to say, just because im a woman, many have tried making law onto my body, physically, legally, directly, indirectly, politically, in any way, and i just want to tell you, that these are our bodies, this is my body, those are your bodies. And i dont give a fuck about what any political party thinks of that. I cant accept being thought of as a murderer, because I am making a responsible decision about my own body!
Speech 2 (translation):
Are yall enraged? We are enraged because the politicians are in our wombs again! We, with the women’s associations, have been closely watching how over the years our government chips away at our reproductional rights. **** **** and ***** ******* (booing) can happily allow themselves to campaign with such atrocious laws. They use women who are worse off to do all their “unclean work”. Their children don’t have to hope to get into any nurseries, travel many hours just to see a doctor, or endure the coldness of our barely if at all heated schools. These women do not understand what it is like for us, there is too big a gap for them to know anything about our lives. ****** ****** and his lackeys would be better off instead going into the schools and listening to those children’s heartbeats! Wear their shoes, and eat what they eat, study 8 hours for nothing every day, do this without any freedom, before they even consider regretting getting born in the first place! ******, ******, get out of my vagina! Louder! There are so many of you! It is incredible!
