Slaughterhouse Lyrics

Their silent cries ringing in our deaf ears

The best way to express our compassion is when we sharpen the knife

Of course, we love all of God's creatures, especially when they're served on a plate

No one can question the morale of those sitting on top of the food chain

It's intentional

This conspicuous crime

It seems perpetual

Still, we cannot see, cannot hear

Can't speak of the pain we're deliberately causing to the innocent

It's how we justify the fault

It's been a long time since the Lion was king and the Ape was the prey

Now the "civilized" predators claiming their right to take the life of the lesser species

Look at us now 10 000 years of evolution and we're still blood-thirsty carnivores

But tell me, would it hurt your feelings if someone else is hunting to eat your children?

It's intentional

This conspicuous crime

It seems perpetual

Still, we cannot see, cannot hear

Can't speak of the pain we're deliberately causing to the innocent

It's how we justify the fault

It's intentional

This conspicuous crime

It seems perpetual

Still, we cannot see, cannot hear

Can't speak of the pain we're deliberately causing to the innocent

And I can't take it anymore

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

We devastate

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

We bring plague to all

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

And then we celebrate our downfall

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

We devastate, we bring plague to all

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

And then we celebrate our downfall

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

And when we're done destroying everything we're heading to our grave

Feeding on the corpses' ashes

It's intentional

This conspicuous crime

It seems perpetual

Still, we cannot see, cannot hear

Can't speak of the pain we're deliberately causing to the innocent

It's how we justify the fault

It's intentional

This conspicuous crime

It seems perpetual

Still, we cannot see, cannot hear

Can't speak of the pain we're deliberately causing to the innocent

And I can't take it anymore
