We were born into a world that just doesn't care

We have turned ourselves into rats running in a never-ending maze

Standing single file in line waiting to be tagged and numbered

Before are very eyes we are being turned into each other

Without a squeak of protest from are forgotten mass of voices

We have become nothing more then a herd of sheep or cattle

Being lend blindly and prepared without question

For our one last trip to the slaughterhouse

Slaughter House

We were born into a world that just doesn't care

We have turned ourselves into rats running in a never-ending maze

Standing single file in line waiting to be tagged and numbered

Before are very eyes we are being turned into each other

Without a squeak of protest from are forgotten mass of voices

We have become nothing more then a herd of sheep or cattle

Being lend blindly and prepared without question

For our one last trip to the slaughterhouse
