Blood On My Hands
This blood on my hands,
I know will haunt me forever,
I was an innocent child
I am an innocent girl
Just 13 years Old
But a murderer of many
Far more innocent than myself
This blood on my hands,
I know will haunt me forever
I’ve taken part in the mindless, needless slaughter
Of thousands
Thousands who had children
Who had parents they never met
I wallow in regret
This blood on my hands
I know will haunt me forever
Ignorance is bliss for me,
Yet for others, pure agony,
This mindless slaughter can’t go on
This isn’t the circle of life
This isn’t just killing for food
This is murder and this torture
This blood on my hands
I know will haunt me forever
Make the right decision
Either make this slaughter more humane
Make it for survival again
Or learn to survive
By being vegetarian.
