I counted to one hundred
I kept losin track
I wrote one hundred letters
No one wrote back
I told one hundred stories
But all of them got twisted
I sang one hundred songs
But nobody listened
Youve got to rise to power
Rise to power
Baby, youve got to rise to power
Rise to power
Rise to power
Aint a shade of difference
Tween the heroes and the cowards
Baby, youve got to rise to power
Forced confessions
And coming attractions
Delusions of grandeur
Split into factions
A silent dark Camelot
A kingdom grey and bland
A dull empty heaven
A strong leaders hand
Youve got to rise to power
Rise to power
Baby, youve got to rise to power
Rise to power
Rise to power
Youre down on your knees
Pullin up the flowers
Baby, youve got to rise to power
No holy water
Can wash me clean
No angel of mercy
To hear my screams
Into your embrace
Im ever driven
And in your arms
Unforgiven
Youve got to rise to power
Rise to power
Baby, youve got to rise to power
Rise to power
Rise to power
The whole worlds watchin
Theres a gunman in the tower
Baby, youve got to rise to power
