Lyrics
:
You are the power and the glory You are the weakness in defeat Like the rise and fall of the British Empire You make me sick with your conceit You are the weakness You are the sickness that�s in our souls You sow the seeds for our destruction To hell with everything that we've done You hold your hands out for forgiveness You bite the hands, the hands that feed Too far you have pushed us Too far too long too strong I will break your hold You are you are you are the maker You are called greed and you�re a cheat You are you are you are the deceiver You are not welcome in my life You are the maker of illusions You break up every dream we�ve made And as I rise up from the ashes You raise your ugly head have you no shame Too long you have lain there Too far too long too strong Oh, I will break your hold You are you are you are the maker You are called greed and you�re a cheat You are you are you are the deceiver You are not welcome in my life You are, you are the weakness Within us, within us You are the sickness that�s in my soul You are you are you are the maker You are called greed and you�re a cheat You are the devil You are you are you are the deceiver The deceiver You are not welcome in my life
