Preacher At Dawn

How ya gonna save  this feeble world,
If you only get the weak to pray
Do you believe you can bathe the evil
Wash this contagious syndrome away

Got a gift of life to share with all
sweep your morals deep beneath the rug
selling faith only to those who call
Seed the masses with your pious bug

Bribe them to believe
Bliss can be born of tragedy
Hope can spew from broken dreams

Preacher at dawn
How do you sleep with that counterfeit halo on
