The Power - Idiot Stare

I feel so small today

In the shadow of big machines

I’ve got to lash out

And bring down these deities

Echoes and second thoughts

I’ll make you bleed

My selfish priorities

Take care of my need

The power to make men lie

I have no conscience

Of my actions or its consequence

Exploited liberal circumstances

A new age of decadence

Will you accept responsibility?

Will you claim superiority?

Your loss your lullaby

Sing praise to your suicide

So blinded by pride

You’re the one that lied

With the power of law in hand

But no ability to understand

In the shadow of big machines

I’ll take it all for free

Evading all that is true

Now I’ll take what’s due

It’s far too late to stop

I’ve taken all you’ve got
