"Animals" lyrics

"Animals"

Watching the lambs
They're as pretty as a picture
In a Sunday School
Raising the Forks
An Animal Lover
They scold the human
Who believes in Humanity
They cannot hear
The screams of those dead

I feel the guilt
From the petty murder, the killing
Of the prisoner, encaged and prized
The Animal, captive
It's thrown into commotion
Imprisoned and checked out
Denied freedom from humanity

No humanity
The commands
Are contained in the hands
Which are holding the knife
No compassion
Causing a Quiet Surrender

Surrender, Surrender
This is murder
This is murder
Aaaa

Human error, watch the mirror
See the makeup
Is it lipstick or blood?
