Lyrics

Mother, march with me by my side

For I am truly petrified

Those gates we see

They clearly mean separation

Mother, hand me those weapons

To ward off the night

The cretins that follow

That you taught me to fight

They're no longer illusions

They're flesh and blood

I hear their footsteps

As they come

Intertwined

Let our fingers linger

For the child I am

And so I turn to you, mother

I extend my hand

Peace be with you

Your little lamb

There are windows in the slaughterhouse

There are windows in the slaughterhouse

Remember

To just look outside

Remember

To just look outside

Mother, I don't recognize

The clothes we wear

Only the star

That they bear

My feet are heavy

They don't seem my own

But I trust you, mother

That we're going home

How I grasp your hand

Hold it tighter than ever

Like the child I am

And so I turn to you, mother

Like it all began

Peace be with you

Your little lamb

There are windows in the slaughterhouse

There are windows in the slaughterhouse

Remember

To just look outside

Remember

To just look outside
