Pariah Under Glass - BoySetsFire

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

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

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

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
