A G#
I was listening to the voices of death on parade

Came along in a time of strife

In hunger and need you made my heart bleed

Talk about salvation, people suddenly get tired

I was eating with the pigs off a fancy tray

In the world you had made they made you an outcast

What the world is set against but will never destroy
