Name: Goin Killin
Duration: P00H06M05S
Description: The way we seem oblivious to the suffering in factory farms, the slaughter house for animals and for humans, the slaughterhouse of war... we are an infant species, with our survival in question... whether we learn non-violent conflict resolution and sustainable living before we destroy ourselves and life system,... well, we can hope... and we can cultivate consciousness.

The way we seem oblivious to the suffering in factory farms, the slaughter house for animals and for humans, the slaughterhouse of war... we are an infant species, with our survival in question... whether we learn non-violent conflict resolution and sustainable living before we destroy ourselves and life system,... well, we can hope... and we can cultivate consciousness.

lyrics

It's a sunny sentimental day an old and sentimental art
not so innocently violent

chorus:
I'm goin down the road straw hat bare foot bamboo pole goin killin

2.
Its a dark and long cor-i-dor day
a long line creatures consciously awake
another day they will not know
to do this to frightened living things
life thief for roast beef
the sacred breath is wrenched in play
like children pulling butterfly wings - chorus

3.
it's a long and dusty winding road
a long line soldiers march again
lying hemorrhaging civilians
to do this to frightened living things
death sower for power
the sacred breath is wrenched in play
like children pulling butterfly wings - chorus

hard hook hard knife hard heart goin killin
steel hat steel gun steel heart goin killin
like children pulling butterfly wings
