i can leave before the slaughter = like a lamb before the slaughter
I agree with inevercamester. The intro is really similar to the music Tim Burton used in Edward Scissorhands (Danny Elfman?). Also the part about hands rusting away gave me that impression that Atreyu used that film as inspiration for this song. Certainly one of Atreyu's most subdued numbers, but excellent. Alex proves he can sing well.
