In the Slaughterhouse (no good but draft i need up to work on)
I came into this slaughterhouse
To walk a narrow line, to speak the truth
And to utterly refuse
To shirk the opening of the heart
In this brutal killing ground
Men and women are broken daily
Scattered by the wind, broken
Ground into cowardice and into abandoning
What they know is right
But this I will never do
In this dark cave of foolish lies
Where a man will sell his brother for an extra day
Or for a profit, or for pussy
I was unwillingly deposited one day
44 years ago
So watch. I won't give in.
And I won't take the easy road.
Watch.
