Testo Pariah Under Glass

Symbolized, patronized and then tossed out to dry
Revolution or humiliation
Promise the bread, the wine, a life that always shines
Take them both in a perfect direction

Pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
When you're bored with your mission and a new one begins
Ride! Your new thrill ride
Smug! It suits you well
God! In your new science lab
Master! Of your new promised land

Pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
When you're bored with your mission and a new one begins

Echo, care and fake some tears to show up your opponent
Throwing bones and bread and circus to disguise the proof
You only empower yourself when those in need become
Your new test subjects in Smear Campaign 101

Recycle control from their hands to your own
Every word is dropping empty Recycle control from their hands to your own
Every word is dropping empty

Promise again
Focus away
From day to day
For your own ends
Their means are dying

Shame! The act is old
Count! Your saintly sermon call
Angel! For your own rewards
Bring! The mercy merchants down

Pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
When you're bored with your mission and a new one begins
Pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
When you're bored with your mission and a new one begins
