In my slaughter house



In my slaughter house
 I do not kill

 Rather I spill pain
 Into the purple shore where
 A teen is raped

 And count blood
 Into the red sprinkle of rain when
 A man is murdered

 In my slaughter house
 I do not cut

 Rather I grow grass
 Upon the wiles of greed

 And graze the beast
 Across the meadows of lies

 in my slaughter house
 I swear
 i do not cut or kill
