Pain is pain.
|
|
We designate our higher rank, then subjugate those of a "lesser" state.
|
We construct the definitions to reinforce our dominant positions
|
and now that we've established us and them, we feel a peace of mind.
|
Similarities? Coincidence, dismissed; all doubts are set aside.
|
|
But don't look in the mirror
|
you may not like what you find
|
¡®cause when the doubts return you'll see
|
that being human doesn't mean we have the right
|
to do whatever the fuck we please.
|
|
Is it lack of compassion, or a love of control?
|
Dare I speculate? Do I want to know?
|
I renounce that mindset;
|
I offer my respect to the non-human animals I share this earth with.
|
|
Their existence is not defined by our status in comparison.
|
They're so much more than biological instruments.
|
|
Pain is pain across the board.
|
Your rationalizations hold no more.
|
Superior to what!?
|
So as long as you maintain your present course,
|
that train of thought let me tell you that¡¦
|
I'll live my life resisting as long as you keep riding that train of thought.
