Power Corrupts Lyrics

Power corrupts the soul
Power can't give up control
At first you thought you would be wise would know when to draw the line
But it went to your head you grew soft in time
Started letting things slip stopped giving a shit
Let people die for the regime, as they proclaimed you king
Long live the king!

Speak no evil, charm with lies
Betray the people keep them blind
Propaganda is your weapon
Two-faced hypocrite
Power corrupts the good

At first you thought you could do no wrong, you could make no mistake
But the temptation was too strong and your will began to break
Acting like god life was yours to give or take
Stealing money like a preacher on TV

Speak no evil, charm with lies
Betray the people keep them blind
Propaganda is your weapon
Two-faced hypocrite
Power corrupts
Two-faced hypocrite
Power corrupts the soul

Power corrupts the soul,
power can't give up control
It eats away and take it's toll
Until it's swallow you whole

When your time has come will end up with regret
That people asked for a change so the revolution spread
Found you guilty at your trial and sentenced you to death
With a rope around your neck you let power corrupts your soul!
