    We Are The Living Graves Of Murdered Beasts
    We are the living graves of murdered beasts
    Slaughtered to satisfy our appetites
    We never pause to wonder at our feasts
    If animals, like men, can possibly
    have rights
    We pray on Sundays that we may have light
    To guide our footsteps on the path we
    tread
    We're sick of war We do not want to
    fight
    The thought of it now fills our hearts with dread
    And yet we gorge ourselves upon the dead
    Like carrion crows we live and feed on meat
    Regardless of the suffering and pain
    We cause by doing so. If thus we treat
    Defenseless animals for sport or gain
    How can we hope in this world to attain
    the PEACE we say we are so anxious for
    We pray for it o'er hecatombs of slain
    To God, while outraging the moral law
    Thus cruelty begets its offspring: war.
