I cower in my stall
Waiting for the time
When the lash of the whip
Will Make me fall
Sinking to my knees
Is it possible I once used to be free?
I feel the whip along my hide
You can see the silent cry in my eyes
As my throat is dry and cracked
I plea for death
Hoping that every one will be my last breath
The rope tightens around my neck
Dragging me to the wreck
Of a yard of fading souls
Horses dying my lost goals
Now a crack has split on my cheek
This ravenous hunger makes me weak
Oh, Save me from this pain
What exactly do these people gain?
At night how do they sleep
Knowing what they’ve done to me
When I do not obey
They beat on my chest with a plank of wood
Dying there as I stood
My heart is breaking
With this last breath I’m taking
I fall to the ground
Covered in a gentle blanket of sun
Thank you, for saving me
From this pain
