New Model Army - Lust For Power Lyrics

Send "Lust For Power" ringtone to your cell

Across the flatlands we came out of nowhere special

Like a peasant revolution with makeshift weapons in our hands

We crashed the gates so hard we'd never heard that kind of sound before

And braced ourselves for victory and the spoils of the land

Defenses melt away before our frozen blank surprise

From the palace now we stare to a million waiting eyes

I've got my trophies on the wall heads i've hunted down the hall

And i guard my winnings well carry them with me when i fall

Now the daylight hours pass like the people i have lost

In the triumph of the hour in the bloody cause lust lust for power

Like a vision she dances through the shafts of light

Everything i've ever dreamed about focused true and bright

Fortune opens up the ground blackens out the sky

I kissed her once i kissed her twice but i couldn't remember why

When i was young they taught me well to always play to win

But they never said what happens when you've won the bloody game

I've got my trophies on the wall heads i've hunted down the hall

And i guard my winnings well carry them with me when i fall

Now the daylight hours pass like the people i have lost

In the triumph of the hour in the bloody cause lust lust for power yeah

And all desire is satisfied but still the hunt goes on

It's funny how this feeling stays with all the reasons gone

Ohh we've seen them fat and bloated those who once could hold a flame

I've run for home and words gone by but nothing seems the same

I can watch myself in secrecy one side of this glass

From the other my reflection and i don't know which is worse

Streets are lined with glittering stores and a million fatted calves

I can catch myself sometimes these days and all i do is laugh

Laugh laugh come on

I've got my trophies on the wall heads i've hunted down the hall

And i guard my winnings well carry them with me when i fall

Now the daylight hours pass like the people i have lost

In the triumph of the hour in the bloody cause lust lust for power

And i guard my winnings well carry them with me when i fall
