Lyrics Momentum - Conscientious Objector

(featuring Cory Von Bohlen of Protestant)

We somehow broke the gavel
before we sentenced this
enslavement to the gallows
agriculture gave us the means
to prosper without death
without this sorry nutrients
we never had the need
for their servitude

this is a curt reminder
this is a turning point

self inflicted solitude
our lofty sensibilities
I see the pallbearers
flanking this industry

to ignore is tantamount to taking part
the piles of new born male chicks
the bins of dying new born calves
a slick of blood and vomit

We will be the voice
of those who cannot speak
be the conscious thought ringing in your ear

we will grow in numbers
conscientious objectors
those who condemn the death of sentient feeling minds

Bonus:

Heifer whines could be human cries
Closer comes the screaming knife
This beautiful creature must die
This beautiful creature must die
A death for no reason
And death for no reason is MURDER

And the flesh you so fancifully fry
Is not succulent, tasty or kind
It's death for no reason
And death for no reason is MURDER

And the calf that you carve with a smile
Is MURDER
And the turkey you festively slice
Is MURDER
Do you know how animals die ?

Kitchen aromas aren't very homely
It's not "comforting", cheery or kind
It's sizzling blood and the unholy stench
Of MURDER

It's not "natural", "normal" or kind
The flesh you so fancifully fry
The meat in your mouth
As you savour the flavour
Of MURDER

NO, NO, NO, IT'S MURDER
NO, NO, NO, IT'S MURDER
