Paroles de Empty Men

Do you envy them
Empty men
With big medicine
They bend your whim
To religion and politics
Institutions and instruments
Automatics in the hands of kids
On chemicals to build confidence
They're waging to preserve the life
Of dictators with grips locked tight
Oblivious to human rights
While rehearsed words make light
Of wolves who stalk babies in the night
Technology has become our fight
Controlling us with lies and might
So they're doing it for Jesus Christ
But Jesus Christ never hurt nobody

Do you hear what's going down
Do you hear what's going down

Bullets stray
Where children play
Work a day
For worthless pay
You turn a slave Phantom hand with the razor slashing
Crazy man insanely asking
Whose breath makes the biggest boast
Whose cup holds the biggest toast
Which way will pay the most
When the light of day away is choked
Atmosphere in a rusty hue
Flip the page of the dusty news
Did the bible was written just for you

Do you hear what's going down
Do you hear what's going down
