Play that song The one that breaks The hearts of all who hear Slow burn bass The ceiling shakes Sweet melody of fear Here comes the liberation This one's for you We fight on the other side But this is still true The preachers and The prophets move To the rock and rolling Devil's groove Don't slow down Til the edge of town We are lost but not found And we know how we sound But it's... All for the greater glory Fall down the money hole Sell out your morning story Suck up a starring role I don't need this You do it for me Play that tune The one that rocks The one we hate so much Killing drums and Crushing dreams No body left untouched Here comes the liberation This one's for you We fight on the other side But all this is true The liars and the Freakshow crowd Do the rock and rolling Devil proud The phone keeps ringing And the girls keep singing And the girls are pretty And they love our city All for the greater glory Fall down the money hole Sell out your morning story Suck up a starring role I don't want them You do them for me Play that riff The one that rings As if we stood a chance Rip our fingers On the strings To teach the world to dance Here comes the liberation This is for you You're stuck on the losing side And this is all true The hucksters and The party mob Do the rock and rolling Devil's job All for the greater glory Fall down the money hole Sell out your morning story Suck up a starring role I don't need this You do it for me All for the greater glory Fall down the money hole Sell out your morning story Suck up a starring role I don't want this You eat it for me

The Liberation
Music works on the emotions. The audience gets it. For a moment of liberation, at least. But are they hearing what you're playing? It's so easy to be cynical. Are you even on the same side? Who's the boss of who? And do we even get out of this place alive? The rock and rolling devil knows.
