Antiseptic Bloodbath

2,000 years ago, a sacrifice was made for us

When the holy Lamb of God gave His all upon the cross

It's easy to forget, cause it happened long ago

The details aren't important, plus we already know

We sanitize brutality

We casually let it wash right on past our heads

For our comfort, we maintain and live our life that way instead

We sanitize brutality

Antiseptic bloodbath

Sanitize it, please

Don't upset my comfort zone

Brutal truth, leave me alone

The Bible is given to those who receive,

but never forget what it took to achieve

The black ink on white tames the bloodiest price

The pages are dripping with the blood of Christ

The blood of cloven hoof and feathered fowl stains the floor, and no one but the workers hear their screams and the gore

Their miserable lives were never meant for us to see

So we who do not kill them, we accept it by degree

We sanitize brutality, we sanitize brutality

Pneumatic bolt to pierce the skull, dispatch them one by one

Terrified, they look on, but there is nowhere to run

Crammed in wire cages, mutilated and defeated

On a factory farm, of any life they're always cheated

Antiseptic bloodbath

Sanitize it, please

Don't upset my comfort zone

Brutal truth, leave me alone

Their various parts packaged up oh so nice

You can't see the blood as it sits on the ice

The life from their bodies all washed down the drain

You buy it so they do it over again

Let not yourself become detached from innocent spilled blood

But I cannot let my painted world get dragged right through the mud

I cannot bear to look my suffering Savior in the eye

I cannot bear to hear their piercing screaming as they die

Antiseptic bloodbath

Sanitize it, please

Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war

With the cross of Jesus going on before

Christ, the royal Master, leads against the foe

Forward into battle see His banners go

Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war

With the cross of Jesus going on before
