Nailing Descartes To The Wall/(Liquid) Meat Is Still Murder

(альбом: Less Talk, More Rock - 1996)

Stop consuming animals.
I speak outside what is recognized as the border between reason and insanity,
But I consider it a measure of my humanity to be written off
By the living graves of a billion murdered lives.
And I'm not ashamed of my recurring dreams about me and a gun and a different species
Of carnage strewn about the stockyards, the factories and farms.
Still, I know as well as anyone, it does less good than harm
To be honest with a conscience eased by lies.
But you cannot deny that meat is still murder, dairy is still rape.
And I am still as stupid as anyone, but I know my mistakes.
And I have recognized one form of oppression; now I recognize the rest.
Life's too short to make others' shorter.
