Pariah Under Glass

symbolized patronized and then tossed out dry
revolution or humiliation
promise the bread the wine a life that shines
pick them up from the floor to get knocked down again
when you're bored with your mission and a new one begins
ride - your new thrill ride
smug - it suits you well
god - in your new science lab
master - of your new promised land
echo care and fake some tears to show your opponent
throwing bones with bread and circus to disguise the proof
you only empower yourself when those in need become your new
test subjects in your smear campaign 101
recycle control from their hands to your own every word is
dropping empty
promise again focus away from day to day for your own ends
their means are dying
shame - the act is old
count - your saintly sermon cells
saint - for your own rewards
bring - the mercy merchants down
