Seen Through Tear Filled Eyes Lyrics by The Alternative

If They Treat You Like Shit... Act Like Manure

0

Humane slaughter, animal torture, ritual slaughter
\nWhite meat, red meat, neatly packed and processed
\nAnd ready to fill your greed!
\nIt ain't necessity, the only point it serves
\nIs to make the companies richer!
\n
\n"Liberation for the workers, for the blacks, for the gays, for the women
\nAnarchy and peace!" you scream
\nAnd you prod your fork into another dead animal
\n
\nThe captive bolt goes through another head
\nAnd another animal's hanging dead
\nIn the Mastеr Butchers, an obscene rеality
\nWhich can only be supported by the limitations
\nWhich constitute murder, cos in your eyes
\nMurder is a crime when it's one of your kind
\nBut murder is the taking of another life
\nIt's a premature death that you don't want to think about
\n
\nNo choice, no voice, no rights, no medals, no graves, no tears, no poppies
\n
\nTears fill my eyes, emotions are exposed
\nThe death our mouths consume
\nI do no wish to hide behind indifference to the pain
\nThe carcass that once could breathe, feel and touch
\nNow is the product in the butcher's shop
\nThe smell of Sunday dinner roasting
\nCan't you hear their screams in the abattoir?
\nCan't you imagine their pain?
\nOr can't you erase that pretty little picture of a sheep grazing in a field?
\nA distortion of the truth is the picture that you paint
\nAnd while you continue to see it that way
\nAnother animal dies
\nAnother precious life is stolen
\nTears run freely down my cheeks
\nI am exposed, I cry
\nI feel no shame
\nStruggling through the darkness isn't easy
\nBut if we don't try, we'll always be blind
\n
\nMurder is murder!
\nMurder is murder!
\nStop the slaughter!
\nStop the slaughter!
\nMurder!\n\n
