Lyrics for Excelsior

Behold, the great beast From enormous means and sweeping vision Digested existence In the mouth of Moloch The dead kiss Of luxury Keeps you a slave Whispering softly "Now back to work" What magnificence Deluded offspring Inherit arrogance Where the strong become weak Dead splendor (Excelsior) Suffering pleasure (Excelsior) Bread of shame (Excelsior) Electric utopia for unworthy sons Mother of greed Devotion devoid Excelsior prime
