Bloody Money

Hold on to your resolve
 And your leather book of lies you tell yourself to sleep at night
 I hope you choke on the smoke and the smog
 While you tell all the parishioners stand up and fight the good fight
 It's a vicious cycle, it's a cheap suit wearing Sisyphus its just people, it's their way
 Do you people got the guts to say
 I don't want your bloody money
 You sell your souls and say it's us who need redemption, ain't it funny
 You lick it up, that bloody money bloody money bloody
 Sweat and simmer and seethe
 You repeat the words, you play the part
 Watch the bullet hit the heart
 Sit and heel and take what you receive
 Puppets in the darkest little comedy we've ever seen
 It's funny and it's tragic
 It's disgusting, somehow beautiful so we can't look away and
 It's spineless, you can never say
 I don't want your bloody money
 You sell your souls and say it's me who needs salvation in the land of milk and honey, just look at all that
 Bloody money bloody money bloody
 Snorting lines of teenage tears
 Watch them lose their golden years watch the headlines feel no shame taking money, not the blame
 Call me the one thats blind
 But we both see the bodies left behind
 Because of all the bloody money
 You wash your hands but
 You're still spoiled to the core
 All the souls what is it for?
 The bloody money bloody money bloody
 You don't remember all their names
 You turn your face and take your pay
 The bloody money bloody money bloody
