Raiment from Oathbreaker by Heathen Foray
A child so small, a faraway land
Reaching out for her stars
Narrow horizons at the end
Keeping her down, stealing her light
We need more, forever more
Our hunger shall be appeased
We need more, forever more
Nowhere enough, devouring disease
A burning sight, poisoned air
Desolate bleak, desperate soul
Caught up in a rat race
No space to breath at all
Turned away with blind eyes
We are well, well apprised
Repressed thought
Willful ignorance
Willful ignorance
Willful ignorance
Can’t you see, it is insane
Scorching her live, her work away
Excessive junk, untouched pristine
Rotting in the vault
Red spots, red whispers of hair
Slash after slash through the flesh
Open wounds shining bright
Cutting glance right behind
We need more, forever more
Our hunger shall be appeased
We need more, forever more
Nowhere enough, devouring disease
Disease!

Lyrics
Greed, exploitation, and child labor are the topics of the next song "Raiment". The all-English lyrics hold a mirror to the face of the consumer and the trend towards fast fashion. Musically the song takes inspiration from Indian music and pairs it with an untypical funk groove. Surely the most experimental song on the album.
