Slaughterhouse Road

Everybody else steeped in wonder As I finish out my stride What you cannot put asunder The struggle to survive I see idiots and hypocrites Can't cut me down to size And I'll be god damned if you'll Take me alive Casualties grown Feeding the Earth no one knows Build greater hope Yet feed the slaughter our soul I'd rather live than believe in eternity Forget, Forgive No discerning the fire that burn me Forget, Forgive I'd rather live than believe in eternity Forget, Forgive There's no cure for Mankind Forgive, Forgive! Feeding a bottomless hole Bleeding our youth for the gold On the Slaughterhouse Road You can't end the war, Or compensate for the loss You can erase the scars, We can't restore the face Of a nation behind bars, Of decades laid to waste On Slaughterhouse Road
