Dreams in the Slaughterhouse
Am I a sheep, a swine, or a man
Sick of shoveling shit with a spade
We will sweat in the breath of the sun
We will drown in the salt and the mud
Break me from the shackles chaining
My swollen feet and blistered hands
I'll stand with my feet in the sand
You will not see me bow
To your promiscuous crown
You lie with the wolf and the lamb
You're fueling the fires right now
You will not see me bow
I'll bury my feet in the sand
Call me the flame, the wind, and a grave
I'll scorch and salt this earth to the shade
Escaping through the fields we run
My spirit will not be undone
Dreaming of stars, guiding lightning
Maybe waking, maybe dying
I'll stand with my feet in the sand
You will not see me bow
To your promiscuous crown
You lie with the wolf and the lamb
You're fueling the fires right now
You will not see me bow
I'll bury my feet in the sand
Sick of shoveling shit with a spade
We will sweat in the breath of the sun
We will drown in the salt and the mud
Break me from the shackles chaining
My swollen feet and blistered hands
I'll stand with my feet in the sand
You will not see me bow
To your promiscuous crown
You lie with the wolf and the lamb
You're fueling the fires right now
You will not see me bow
I'll bury my feet in the sand
Call me the flame, the wind, and a grave
I'll scorch and salt this earth to the shade
Escaping through the fields we run
My spirit will not be undone
Dreaming of stars, guiding lightning
Maybe waking, maybe dying
I'll stand with my feet in the sand
You will not see me bow
To your promiscuous crown
You lie with the wolf and the lamb
You're fueling the fires right now
You will not see me bow
I'll bury my feet in the sand
