Emma Ruth Rundle – Powerless Lyrics

Powerless Lyrics by Emma Ruth Rundle

Power corrupting, you had my trust
Empire collapsing, everything dust
We run like rabid rabbits over your plate
The craven habits hammer, madness I am ashamed

Power
Power
Powerless

And you held us under, with wanton disgust
You said you’d do better, but power corrupts
You run like madmen, ragged over this place
The craven habits hammer, madness I can’t escape…

Power
Powerless
Power
Powerless

Let me lie here with this hammer in my hand
One for breaking one for building something better
Let me lie here with this hammer in my hand
One for breaking one for building something better
Let me die here with a hammer in my hand
One for finding one for showing something better
Let me walk here with a lantern in my hand
One for finding one for showing something better
Let me die here with a hammer in my hand
One for smashing one for making something better

Power
Power
Powerless
Power
Power
Powerless
