The Killing Floor

I remember the story
I heard a man came down
He turned the water into wine
And the lost were found

When the sun goes down and the spirits rise
And I'm alone with a life full of compromise
There ain't no way to deny
That tonight's the night I'm gonna have to die

To the flesh and the bone and to all I've known 
Let it all just wash away
But I won't have to cry no more
Seems just like I always

End up on the Killing Floor
Cause I can't stand to lie no more
Feels like I'm tied to the whipping post
Face to face with the Holy Ghost
And he just loves me even more
And He picks me up off the Killing Floor


Well it's dog eat dog you don't know where to hide
It's a battle of greed and foolish pride
While the enemy waits just to swing the noose
Yeah, my King's there just to cut me loose


To the flesh and the bone and to all I've known 
Let it all just wash away
And I won't have to cry no more
Seems just like I always

End up on the Killing Floor
Cause I can't stand to lie no more
Feels like I'm tied to the whipping post
Face to face with the Holy Ghost
And He just loves me even more
And He picks me up off the Killing Floor


To the flesh and the bone and to all I've known 

Let it all just wash away
And I don't have to cry no more
Now I know I'll always

End up on the Killing Floor
Cause I can't stand to lie no more
Feels like I'm tied to the whipping post
Face to face with the Holy Ghost
And he just loves me even more
And He picks me up off the Killing Floor
