someone always runs the numbers
simple addition can confirm a massacre
but for each person and in each home
simple addition can confirm a massacre
but for each person and in each home
loss is a tale of subtraction without zero
we calculate risk and how the body count
we calculate risk and how the body count
came to this blood-stained thing before us
we fret over whether our days are numbered
like tiny children gone saved only in memories
and in the end it becomes what we can count on
what human costs we will endure when multiplied
these are the products of our formulas fabricating
a world where the erased never leave our ledger
