Gary Holt states:
"As we have finally come to the day of Persona Non Grata’s release, something we’ve been eagerly awaiting for what seems like an eternity. We are pleased to share one last lyric video with you, my personal favorite song on the album, ‘Prescribing Horror’. A little tale of motherhood and a drug, and what happens when greed comes before life and safety. The story of Thalidomide.”

EXODUS "PRESCRIBING HORROR" LYRICS

Lyrics and music: Gary Holt

Discarded, deformed
babies of the chemical age
Mutated, some unborn
dying in their fetal cage
On the day of the nativity in ‘56
comes a child forsaken
The first of a hundred thousand,
cursed by a drug they’d taken

Chorus

Condemned to a life unkind
as they suffered in silence
The Hell of Thalidomide
all in the name of science
A mother’s ruin
all for another’s greed
Prescribing horror and sorrow when they breed

Melody Gary

Miscarriage, disparage
live a life of anguish
Midwives were taking lives
so the child it would not languish
Suffocating newborn daughters and sons
for their malformations
Given toxic poison
that twisted a generation

Repeat chorus

First created in the past
as an antidote for Sarin gas
Created in camps of death
what price a pound of flesh?
Limbless, eyeless
all organs displaced
They made money hand over fist
by selling this toxic waste

Repeat chorus
