lyrics

He’s calling you
to rend your heart and not your clothes
So it seems to me
YOU THINK YOU’RE GOOD AS GOLD

You wear your heart on your sleeve
(and make others believe)
You are living for infinity
While your possessions stack up so endlessly

Well I’m not a prophet
But I’ve got a good bet
On what happens next for you

HYPOCRITE!
HYPOCRITE! HYPOCRITE!
You kept your doors closed when they needed you
When the waters grew and they had no one left to turn to
PROFIT!
PROFIT! PROFIT!
From the exploitations of the weak-minded
You fill their heads with false hopes and manipulated text

Well I’m not a prophet
But I’ve got a good bet
On what happens next for you
Called as a shepherd (SHEPHERD!)
But you left the flock for your own gain (NO!)
You built yourself up as a king

But you are no king.
