Mike Mangione
The Killing Floor
Tonight I'm coming back For you To free the dove like you want me to All good draws pain
Without birth she flies in vain
And I see we've been running form the killing floor And the pure we twisted 'til profane
I'll break the tide If you blow out the flame
To fill these hearts full We reach and grab for more
But I found we've been reaching for the killing floor We can sing hallelujah Hallelujah Halle Hallelujah
And the vulnerable have been crowned insane
We hide our burns in the colors of the flame And the consensus conceals What these tender wounds revealed
And we're surprised when our knees feel the killing floor And the night my love has had its ways My eyes have seen the secrets of where we lay Wrapped deep in pride we take what's never been denied With each step we bandage our sides to the killing floor With each step we abandon our sight to the killing floor We can sing hallelujah Halle Hallelujah
