Profit

[In the near future... The Prophet awakens] I try to help but things get out of hand For some reason I try to tell the truth but they react like I have Spoken treason I reach to lift the veil that shows the profit Eating up our nation The siren's voice is strong like medicine It darkens our relations You think that I don't care I don't think that I could care more than I do You faith has left you there I don't think that I could care more than I do The Owner fans the flames easily Keeping our attention And while he diverts our eyes his wagon passes by Without a mention I try to lift the veil to show the beast Feeding on my nation But now we've chosen sides and faith won't let you have That conversation You say that I don't care I don't think that I could care more than I do You faith has left you there I don't think that I could care more You say that I don't care I don't think that I could care more than I do You faith has left you there I don't think that I could care more

[Inspired by a deep sense of responsibility the Prophet begins his mission to point out that things are very wrong] There is a stain on the Sun It could be trouble for everyone As we drift along in space To the drone of the commonplace Do you think about it Do you ever think about it Tighten up your grip And pray to god that no-one slips As we drift along in space To the sound of the marketplace Do you think about it Do you ever think about it Do you think about it (There's a stain on the Sun) Do you ever think about it (There's a stain on the Sun) Do you think about it (There's a stain on the Sun) Do you ever think

[The Prophet is surprised at the overwhelming negative response from These Who Will Not See.He learns that Truth is often like an enemy: It hurts, It cuts, It is not easily accepted,It causes Those Who Will not See to put up barriers and sometimes attack... but the Prophet continues to reason] I walked up and stood at the edge of the view And I looked around We took in the curve of the massive horizon And the lives on the ground I didn't know what to say I had to ask anyway Tell me How will we live without water How long will we dance with the hand Of our own devil's daughter The drones fell in line with incredible numbers And I felt defeat 'Cause the spell was too strong and they were in slumber So I stared at their feet I had to ask anyway Tell me How will we live without water How long will we listen to lies From our own devil's daughter Tell me How will we live without water How long will we dance with the hand Of our own devil's daughter

[Almost no one listens.The Prophet's initial exuberance is dampened by weariness as Those Who Will Not See become more determined to look away.They mock the Prophet while spreading lies about him.He is perplexed that being Truthful can fuel such unbridled hatred.The Prophet remembers how easy it was when He Would Not See] Tin sounds and the nagging of change Planted feet that won't rearrange Big hope getting harder to change I wish I was flying Out there again I wish I was flying Flying again Ten thousand hard miles to go It's gonna take forever going this slow And the timing is the one fatal blow I wish I was flying again When I was a little boy I had to go to school Following my best with every rule Perfect lines all the time Never questioning or straying from the lines I wish I was flying Out there again I wish I was flying Flying again

The Profiteers] Mr. Man would you let me get past you would you let me through I gotta get to the end of the hallway Just let me get by you Mr. Man why you holdin' up your hand What did you say to me I'll just keep staring at the end of the hallway And hope that you will see Mr. Man don't ya do me like that Hey Man don't ya do me like that Mr. Man don't ya do me like that Hey Man don't ya do me like that Just because I won't be your honey Just because I won't play your hand Just because I won't be the star of your team You won't give anybody a hand Mr. Man don't ya do me like that Hey Man don't ya do me like that Mr. Man don't ya do me like that Hey Man don't ya do me like that Mr. Man don't ya do me like that Man don't ya do me like that Hey Mr. Man don't ya do me like that Hey don't ya do me like that Hey

[The local community turns against The Prophet and his Followers. He is run out of town.As the Followers disperse to hide, The Prophet hears that The Profiteers are killing Followers in Memphis.He wants to help... if he can only get there in time] Driving down to Memphis To see what I can see Trying to get away from All these people chasing me When I tried to tell them "Something's looking wrong" They said they would hang me Get back where I belong I've got to get away Driving down to Memphis Get me out of here I've got to get away [Upon arrival The Prophet sees he is too late] See the burning water Smoke is in the air See the people turning Who couldn't give a care See the smiling vulture Wine glass in his hand See the sneer across his face As darkness fills the land I've got to get away Driving down to Memphis Get me out of here I've got to get away I've got to get away Driving down to Memphis Get me out of here

[The Prophet summons His Followers in hiding for now they will gather together in a deserted town while making new plans] Smoke was rising as we left the station We grabbed the nearest thing and then we ran Like running through an open door To something never seen before We were Running through a ghost town Running through a ghost town The sky was racing by as we looked below us We were the lucky ones cause we would get away Like living the impossible Like floating through an obstacle We were Running through a ghost town Running through a ghost town We headed out to a new place To find a truth we could embrace We were Running through a ghost town Running to a place where the sun goes down We headed out to a new place To find a truth we could embrace We were Running through a ghost town Running through a ghost town We were Running through a ghost town

[After regrouping and reaffirming their mission the Prophet and his Followers try another approach.This time they will go before The Spiritual Masters of Those Who Will Not See...After all, The Masters' scrolls command that they be responsible for Mother Earth.The Prophet feels He must remind them of this, but he knows it's dangerous.The Masters are close friends with the Profiteers] Got no winning ticket No guarantee No way to calm the waves Of instability No new-found wreckage No treasure chest No magic closet that will Save you from the rest If your place in heaven Will you find your head in the sand If your place in heaven Will you bury your face in the sand No independence No magic ring No way that you aren't a part Of every single thing Can't escape consequences Can't escape life Can't hold your breath forever And you won't hide the knife If your place in heaven Will you find your head in the sand If your place in heaven Will you bury your face in the sand If your place in heaven Will you find your head in the sand If your place in heaven Will you bury your face in the sand

[Instrumental] [The Prophet and Followers wait.Their journey is determined this night.All hope rests on the message of The Prophet getting through to The Masters of Those Who Will Not See] [An Answer Arrives.The Spiritual Masters of Those Who Will Not See betray The Prophet.They say He is a False Prophet, a liar.He is The Enemy.]

[The Prophet is stunned, dejected and silent.He indulges in a moment of self pity.He knows he has failed to convince The Masters... the last hope of Mother Earth] I used to soar across the sky with big Angel wings I used to stand atop the mountain and see Everything Then I awoke from the breath of a Frozen wind I closed my eyes 'cause I didn't want to See again I am fallen We used to run holding hands wearing Golden crowns And we would land on a cushion when we Did fall down Then we were faced with the breath of a Frozen wind We closed our eyes 'cause we didn't want to See again 'cause at the finish line we stopped and let the Money win We are fallen

[The Prophet and the Followers understand that no one who stays behind will survive.It is time to leave.Their only hope is to reach a space station owned by The Profiteers.They will hide their Truths for now.It is the only way to survive.The Prophet looks back on the disappearing Earth.He ponders.How did we let it come to this.] It was feeling kind of strange We glided out of range 'cause we were moving on Past the point of no return We stood and watched it burn 'cause we were moving on The words bounced right off you And no matter how true You wouldn't see We were just trying to convince you But nothing ever got through Your strong belief (Strong belief) Ty Tabor: vocals / guitars / keysJohn Myung: bassRod Morgenstein: drums / percussionThanks to stealthgunner385, epaves2 for sending these lyrics.
