Lyrics: 


[Verso 3]
 
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 
 


[Refrão]
 
Power/Powerless 
 


[Verso 4]
 
And you held us under, with wanton disgust 
You said youd do better, but power corrupts  
You run like madmen, ragged over this place 
The craven habits hammer, madness I cant escape 
 


[Refrão]
 
Power/Powerless 
 


[Ponte]
 
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
