our lives! are not expendable
no murdering meals
are starving the bloodstream
I am still accountable
for all of my footsteps
scarring the green
yeah
A silent cry
planet wide
are all our cousins
happy to die?
traditions and appetites
are no good reason why

We are all animals
so we suffer in kind
all our customs leave
our consciousness behind
all this balance
interrupted
I won't consume you
If you breathe what I do
and bleed in red too

We paint a picture
of human 'nature'
This distance that we buy
vivisected
then collected
You didn't have to die

this Species War it is Class War
poverty diet cancer increases
in the freezers at the back of the store
we only look at lives
lived in pieces

We are all animals
so we suffer in kind
all our customs leave
our consciousness behind
all this balance
interrupted
I won't consume you
If you breathe what I do
and bleed in red too

Live free

We are all animals
so we suffer in kind
all our customs leave
our consciousness behind
all this balance
interrupted
I won't consume you
If you breathe what I do
and bleed in red too

Did they
smile through their teeth
when they
told you
you deserved this?
professional men
speaking from the side
of their mouths
letting you battle
with this isolation
give me strength to witness
strength to witness
death is big business
not for you and I
our death is not collateral
