Can't you see it coming down on you? As you tighten up your grip
There is nothing you can say or do. Set the limits to your trip
The endless hunger that's-a fueling you. Sends your masses on the run
When they rise and turn their backs on you. There'll be no power for the one
You've taken all that the world could give
And killing for the life that you wanna live
The saints and the sacraments are all your sins
And you're so lonely
Feel the blood through the ice in your veins
Taste of the pleasure in the joy of pain
Never known a lover who wasn't fair game
But you're still lonely
Now you're running outta precious time. Can't you see it's all a waste?
The power lust was your greatest crime. Another thing you cannot face
See the world that keeps spinning 'round. As you're reaching for the sun
When they rise and turn their backs on you. There'll be no power for the one
