And now they're searching for that new messiah
it's their greatest passion to set'em up and knock'em down
put them on a pedestal idolatry
wear the ring
you're married
it's all yours to their envy
because you hold a higher key of senses
and they are drawn like magnets to a genius
it's confirmed
(chorus)
set'em up and knock'em down
tour taste is so accountable
this is no great loss and sharing never was a choice
it's burning on your cross
it gives you credit and a voice
here to relay tour beautiful ideals vicariously through them
and when he died
too many were sympathetic
and they are all pathetic
so you dethrone your ring without listening
and jesus christ is realized
as he burns on your cross
but this is no great loss
another one will come
the wait is short
your search is brief
you find another faith
another clark kent
another superman flashing in the pan
(repeat chorus)
and now you are searching for that new messiah
it's your greatest passion
it's the latest fashion
