Song | Decayer |
Artist | Hatesphere |
Album | The Great Bludgeoning |
Caught in the maze of my empty promises | |
Spun around excessive desires | |
My legacy was my only intent | |
In a way I repay and leave it all to waste | |
I set the state on fire and let it all burn | |
Your decay is not my concern | |
Under the spell of my reasoning | |
The poor stayed poor and ‘free’ was yet another word for ‘rich’ | |
Nothing more to take from the weak | |
What’s yours is mine, what’s mine will stay mine | |
You gave me power to rule | |
To decide over right and wrong | |
My intentions were cruel | |
All the promises dead and gone | |
Sacrificed for a much greater purpose | |
Lives spent in the name of my personal gain | |
The last crown wasted | |
Wasted on war | |
I set the state on fire and let it all burn | |
The flames got higher and higher ‘cause you wouldn’t learn | |
All the things I’ve ever done, I did just to say: | |
Your decay was never my concern | |
People die | |
From my neglect | |
You can never blame me | |
People die | |
When they put their trust in me |
Caught in the maze of my empty promises | |
Spun around excessive desires | |
My legacy was my only intent | |
In a way I repay and leave it all to waste | |
I set the state on fire and let it all burn | |
Your decay is not my concern | |
Under the spell of my reasoning | |
The poor stayed poor and ' free' was yet another word for ' rich' | |
Nothing more to take from the weak | |
What' s yours is mine, what' s mine will stay mine | |
You gave me power to rule | |
To decide over right and wrong | |
My intentions were cruel | |
All the promises dead and gone | |
Sacrificed for a much greater purpose | |
Lives spent in the name of my personal gain | |
The last crown wasted | |
Wasted on war | |
I set the state on fire and let it all burn | |
The flames got higher and higher ' cause you wouldn' t learn | |
All the things I' ve ever done, I did just to say: | |
Your decay was never my concern | |
People die | |
From my neglect | |
You can never blame me | |
People die | |
When they put their trust in me |
