The Coffin Road Waltz
I was innocent born of pain and abuse
Bred to be a monstrosity
Any semblance of a natural life
Will die a stranger to me
I was stolen from my mother's side
Before I could even walk
Into a life of hell; in a concrete cell
Knee-deep in piss, shit and fear
Do you think i want to live like this?
Do you think you're any different from me?
Not for any real need
Just man's selfish greed
I'll be taken before the year's out
Down that coffin road
To where humanity erodes
The slaughterhouse
With kicks and screams
That would haunt your dreams
They'll hang me conscious from a hook
And slit my throat
My blood'll pour down like waterfalls
Like it could drown out the sins of the world
Do you think I want to die like this?
Do you think you're any different from me?
My fat drips down your knuckles
You tore off my skin to make your shoes
So I kinda hope you choke on a piece of broken bone
'Cause that's the way the sausage is made
Bred to be a monstrosity
Any semblance of a natural life
Will die a stranger to me
I was stolen from my mother's side
Before I could even walk
Into a life of hell; in a concrete cell
Knee-deep in piss, shit and fear
Do you think i want to live like this?
Do you think you're any different from me?
Not for any real need
Just man's selfish greed
I'll be taken before the year's out
Down that coffin road
To where humanity erodes
The slaughterhouse
With kicks and screams
That would haunt your dreams
They'll hang me conscious from a hook
And slit my throat
My blood'll pour down like waterfalls
Like it could drown out the sins of the world
Do you think I want to die like this?
Do you think you're any different from me?
My fat drips down your knuckles
You tore off my skin to make your shoes
So I kinda hope you choke on a piece of broken bone
'Cause that's the way the sausage is made
