Lamb to the Slaughter lyrics

I went down to the water

Like a lamb to the slaughter

Didn't know what was waiting for me there

Nobody warned me, nobody told me

My excuse is I wasn't prepared

I drank deep from the river

And sealed up my fate

I should have seen the trap, baby

Before it was too late

We go down

We go down

We go down,

It's the only way out

Who is this fool

Who believed all the stories

I wish I could say it's not me

It polluted my head

With the things that you said

I became what you wanted to see

All of these years

I've built up this hate

I had my chance coming

But now it's too late

We go down

We go down

We go down,

It's the only way out

(2x)

I drank deep from the river

And sealed up my fate

I had my chance coming

Now it's too late

We go down

We go down

We go down

It's the only way out

(2x)

Down is the only way out (6x)
