Sleep Now In The Fire lyrics - Audioslave

(originally by Rage Against The Machine)

The world is my expense

The cost of my desire

Jesus blessed me with its future

And I protect it with fire

So raise your fists and march around

Don't dare take what you need

I'll jail and bury those committed

And smother the rest in greed

Crawl with me into tomorrow

Or I'll drag you to your grave

I'm deep inside your children

They'll betray you in my name!

Sleep now in the fire!...

The lie is my expense

The scope of my desire

The party blessed me with its future

And I protect it with fire

I am the Nina, The Pinta, The Santa Maria

The noose and the rapist

And the fields overseer

The agents of orange

The priests of Hiroshima

The cost of my desire

Sleep now in the fire!...

For it's the end of history

It's caged and frozen still

There is no other pill to take

So swallow the one

That made you ill

The Nina, The Pinta, The Santa Maria

The noose and the rapist

The fields overseer

The agents of orange

The priests of Hiroshima

The cost of my desire

Sleep now in the fire!...
