because that's what animals lives come to, thanks to humans. but we tend to ignore all the suffering we cause, the blood and the stench of decay. Because our burgers are all made up yummy, no sign of the animal that gave its life for this burger is left. Every meat eater should be forced to endure the stench of decay and death. Then, perhaps, he would begin to realize what he's doing...
"But hidden in the dark and erased from our heads
barbarity and slaughter are everywhere"
-> Slaughterhouses are out of sight for most humans... so they can easily ignore the reality behind their "meals"
"On the edge of a new age this is still our dogma"
-> Meat eating is still being considered to be "normal", to be "just alright"... still, in our time. That's a monstrosity, because it's nothing but murder.
Pretty hard to misunderstand these lyrics.
And btw, there was a vegetarian/vegan-sXe-compilation named "Voice of the Voiceless" on Smorgasbord Records in 1991. Guess the title is also meant as a tribute to that record.">

How can you even DISCUSS if this song is about animal rights? Of course it is... just read the lyrics:
"A rain of blood should cover our world
Stench and decay should be the only thing we sense"
