The Power And The Glory Lyrics

Casting Out The Power And The Glory

From saving lives to saving souls from budget cuts to meeting goals
it’s been written out in bold
there’s nothing left here of the past it’s just a brand and hired cast
how are the millions being sold

just admit it’s for the power and the glory it’s still the same old story
our false sincerity persists you can read it on our lips
it’s for the power and the glory…onward to glory

The magic’s measured by the crime of selling futures to the blind
foot soldiers fitted and aligned
indentured servants to the throne of corporate gods and sacred tome
how are the billions being sold
onward to glory

regression desire denounce or conspire
it’s us me or them in the hands of the buyers
we’ve been trampled controlled at least that’s how it’s told
so pack your soul…and onward to glory

it’s always been and always will
the sheep die poor and unfulfilled
