Roses are red Pigs used to be pink Why are we covered in red? I see him with a knife I’m running for my life He has a kid and a wife How can he be so cruel I don’t want to die Why so much madness in his eye I’m only a pig I’m loved because I’m big I imagine him as a beast Loving me so I can be a delicious feast They treat me like I don’t have feelings He already killed all my siblings Some people seem to care About my way of living But all they really care for Are the images they give to others I live in a world of hypocrisy That’s the way things are meant to be Only the strongest deserve to live Here there is no place for the weak Why can’t I keep my dignity Why do they look at me like I’m some kind of machine We never know what’s going to happen We live in fear of not knowing Imagine being born as me I want to be free « return. |
