Never Own My Soul Lyrics

Never Own My Soul

The Bishop's in the countryside, blessing all who come to hide

His medicine is very strong, but something in the serum's wrong

He's made a deal to lend a hand, a vision for a greater plan

Where you can own most anything

The mountain tops, the birds that sing

The oceans deep, the twinkles in the sky

The sky - the sky - the sky

They choke the rivers with cement, bleed the world like sacrament

Sell a power that is no power, and push it towards the final hour

When everything is in their cloud, and you can shout it right out loud

But no one's there, it strikes a fear, the clear channel's all you hear

The words of greed, the never ending lies

The lies - the lies - hey the lies

You put me in a show - You keep me in a dream

And you can have it all - And win, or so it seems

But you'll never own my soul - You'll never own my soul

You'll never own my soul - Never own my soul

Our heads are on the chopping block, they come, they ride, they never stop

They're listening through my telephone, and now we'll never be alone

They own my thoughts, my house, my street

They keep you dancin' to the beat

Their mantra goes, "You must consume",

To keep yourself from doom & gloom

While war machines and smoke clouds fill the sky

The sky - the sky - hey the sky

What you don't know - what could never be

Something beyond everything you see
