symbolized patronized

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 ride
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 up your opponent
throwing bones with bread and circus to disguise the proof

from day to day
for your own ends

count - your saintly sermon cells

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
