What we chastise one minute, we justify the next With the elevated morality that our torture reflects Our grand-standing assertions mean absolutely nothing If what we denounce is exactly what we bring Back into the lives of those we claimed to liberate The abuse we then condemned we now advocate and perpetrate We label them terrorists but how are we different When we reopen the rape rooms under American management? Victimized Demoralized Brutalized Dehumanized Locked down under freedom’s internment Never convicted or even charged with a crime Stripping them of their rights along with the dignity Is easier than winning their hearts and minds Interrogation erodes into inhumane torture In isolation where the world can’t hear their cries Abused in the dungeons of American tyranny Where international law no longer applies Liberated to be degraded Liberated to be humiliated The new dictatorship has reopened old wounds Terrorized in the American rape rooms Caught in the spotlight with blood on our hands Our credibility has been permanently damaged Those at the bottom have been made the scapegoats While the administration’s role still goes unacknowledged Ignoring all treaties and international standards Rewriting the laws to legalize torture Waging an all out war against Islam The pentagon wanted blood and Bush gave the order Liberated to be degraded Liberated to be humiliated The new dictatorship has reopened old wounds Sodomized in the American rape rooms We’re kidnapping civilians to keep America safe We’re imprisoning the innocent to keep America safe We’re murdering people to keep America safe We’re raping children to keep America safe Victimized Demoralized Brutalized Dehumanized Before the sickening images can take a political toll The right-wing spin machine plays damage control Talking points are dispensed to protect their ranks The torture draws comparisons to fraternity pranks To justify the torture of the “terrorist enemy” Our crimes against humanity are a wartime necessity We pat ourselves on the back as we spit in their face A slap on the wrist is a spit in their face Liberated to be degraded Liberated to be humiliated The new dictatorship has reopened old wounds Dehumanized in the American rape rooms
