[God’s Plan -The Holy Abattoir] [Chorus] Oh, I'm walking in God’s plan for my life He carved my name in the edge of His knife Through every valley where the martyrs lie Still His hand is on me This is God’s plan for my life (Drag them to the altar) [Chorus] I’m walking in God’s plan for my life Fed to His throne like sacrificial swine No heaven waits on the other side He just feeds on me nightly This is God’s plan for my life [Verse I] His crown is stitched from broken halos His robes are woven out of graves He built His heaven from our marrow And calls our terror grace We march in rows like trembling cattle Through cathedral gates of bone Each prayer another pound of flesh To feed the throne alone [Pre-Chorus] He whispers: “Child, devotion saves.” But the altar floor is slick with graves [Chorus] Oh, I'm walking in God’s plan for my life The shepherd waits with a butcher’s smile Through every valley the lambs arrive Still His hand is on me This is God’s plan for my life (Lay them on the altar) [Verse II] He is the mirror that worships itself A starving god of endless need Narcissus drowning in sacred wine While drinking rivers of belief His prophets preach with gilded tongues While vultures circle in the rafters They promise kingdoms in the clouds But God just counts the slaughter after [Bridge – Ritual Choir / Whispered] Holy hunger… holy blade… All the faithful must be flayed… Holy tyrant… holy feast… Heaven is the feeding beast… [Final Chorus] I’m walking in God’s plan for my life Born for the feast beneath His knife Through every valley the herds survive Just long enough to feed Him This is God’s plan for my life [Outro – Spoken / Choir] Blessed are the butchered. Blessed are the drained. Blessed are the obedient animals Who call the slaughter faith.
