I built a little empire
Out of some crazy garbage called the blood of the exploited working class...
But they've overcome their shyness; now they're calling me "Your Highness,"
And a world screams,
"Kiss me, Son of God!"
I destroyed the bond of friendship and respect
Between the only people left, who'd even look me in the eye...
Now I laugh and make a fortune
off the same ones that I torture,
And a world screams,
"Kiss me, Son of God!"
I look like Jesus,
so they say...
But Mister Jesus is very far away...
Now you're the only one here, who can tell me if it's true
That you love me,
And I love me...
