symbolized patronized and then tossed out to dry

revolution or humiliation

promise of the bread the wine a life that shines

if only they vote in the proper 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



echo care and fake some tears to show up your opponent

throwing bones with bread and circus to disguise the proof

you only empower yourself when those in need

become your new test subjects in your smear campaign 101

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 servant calls

saint - for your own rewards

bring - the mercy merchants down
