Portrait Of Authority 歌词

Nothing more, nothing less An icon on the wall, decoration and duress That which many strive to be It's the marble statue staring over me And nobody has the will to tear it down It determines wrong and right But to me it's just a stereotype And it makes us lose our sight The portrait of authority (portrait of authority) You tell me that's what I'm supposed to be (Portrait of authority) You tell me that's what I'm supposed to be Another time, another man An oppressive intrusion and a plague across his land And it haunts him every day It tells him he has no chance, his hopes just fade away And he lives his life prepared to tear it down But he can't muster the support And to him it's just a stereotype Of his life-long fight The portrait of authority (portrait of authority) It embodies what he cannot be (Portrait of authority) It's what he cannot be! The portrait of authority (portrait of authority) Portrait of authority!
