Lyrics BoySetsFire – Pariah Under Glass
Text:
Symbolized. patronized and then tossed out dry
Revolution or humiliation
Promise the bread. the wine, a life that always shines
If only they vote in the proper direction
When you’re bored with your mission and a new one begins
Ride your new thrill
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 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
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 cells
Angel for your own rewards
Bring the mercy merchants down
Pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
Pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
When you’re bored with your mission and a new one begins
