Lust For Power (2005 Digital Remaster) - New Model Army[00:00:00]
Across the flatlands we came out of nowhere special[00:00:12]
Like a peasant revolution[00:00:17]
Makeshift weapons in our hands[00:00:19]
We crashed the gates so hard[00:00:23]
We'd never heard that kind of sound before[00:00:25]
And braced ourselves for victory[00:00:28]
And the spoils of the land[00:00:31]
Defences melt away[00:00:34]
Before our frozen blank surprise[00:00:36]
From the palace now we stare[00:00:39]
Into a million waiting eyes[00:00:42]
Got my trophies on the wall[00:00:45]
Heads I've hunted down the hall[00:00:47]
And I guard my winnings well[00:00:50]
Carry them with me when I fall[00:00:53]
Now the daylight hours pass[00:00:56]
Like the people I have lost[00:00:59]
In the triumph of the hour[00:01:01]
In the bloody 'cause lust[00:01:04]
Lust for power[00:01:07]
Like a vision she dances[00:01:20]
Through the shafts of light[00:01:22]
Everything I've ever dreamed about[00:01:24]
Focused true and bright[00:01:27]
And fortune opens up the ground[00:01:30]
Blackens out the sky[00:01:33]
I kissed her once[00:01:36]
I kissed her twice but[00:01:37]
I couldn't remember why[00:01:39]
When I was young they[00:01:41]
Taught me well to always play to win[00:01:43]
But they never said what happens[00:01:47]
When you've won the bloody game[00:01:49]
Got my trophies on the wall[00:01:52]
Trophies[00:01:54]
Heads I've hunted down the hall[00:01:55]
And I guard my winnings well[00:01:58]
Guard my[00:02:00]
Carry them with me when I fall[00:02:01]
Now the daylight hours pass[00:02:03]
Daylight[00:02:06]
Like the people I have lost[00:02:06]
In the triumph of the hour[00:02:09]
In the bloody 'cause lust[00:02:12]
Lust for power[00:02:15]
Yeah[00:02:21]
And all desire is satisfied[00:02:26]
But still the hunt goes on[00:02:29]
It's funny how this feeling[00:02:32]
Stays with all the reasons gone[00:02:34]
Oh we've seen them fat and bloated[00:02:39]
Those who once could hold a flame[00:02:43]
I've run for home and words gone[00:02:46]
By but nothing seems the same[00:02:49]
I can watch world self in secrecy[00:02:52]
One side of this glass[00:02:55]
From the other my reflection and[00:02:57]
I don't know which is worse[00:03:00]
The streets are lined with glittering[00:03:03]
Stores and a million fatted calves[00:03:05]
I can catch myself sometimes these[00:03:08]
Days and all I do is laugh laugh laugh[00:03:11]
Got my trophies on the wall[00:03:17]
Heads I've hunted down the hall[00:03:19]
And I guard my winnings well[00:03:22]
Carry them with me when I fall[00:03:25]
Now the daylight hours pass daylight hours[00:03:28]
Like the people I have lost[00:03:31]
In the triumph of the hour triumph[00:03:34]
In the bloody 'cause lust[00:03:36]
Lust for power[00:03:39]
Trophies on the wall[00:03:40]
Trophies[00:03:41]
Heads I've hunted down the hall[00:03:42]
And I guard my winnings well[00:03:45]
Carry them with me[00:03:48]
Carry them with me when I fall[00:03:49]
