Details
"Bodies in the Chair" is a hard-hitting exposition of the systemic issues plaguing juvenile justice and child welfare systems. This track pulls back the curtain on these institutions' cold, bureaucratic nature, revealing a system more concerned with filling seats and meeting quotas than with the well-being of the children it's meant to protect. The song's title is a powerful metaphor, reducing children to mere "bodies" occupying chairs, stripped of their individuality and humanity.
