A battlefield
a death camp
Blood and snot and pain
The meat trade think we are stupid
Inside it’s just insane
Animals die in agony
Beaten up and broke
Many have limbs cut off of them
Whilst alive this is no joke
as for halal and kosher
its criminally all wrong
chopping limbs and draining blood
how can this belong
in a civilised society
religions through and through
the painful squeals of angels
just break me in two
