2. Altar of the Gods (3:42)
[Carter]
Come from the woods
Out of the hills
Come from the cities
Down from the moors
Make your way down the golden path
To stand free for the temple
Power is the name
To stay on top your reign
Money rules the game
The winner takes the gain
Come smash the old
Come cut the land
Come carve the stone
Come forge the steel
From out of desolation rise
The symbols of your power
Your towers of steel stand proud
Cathedrals of a new age
Let all with greed come worship here
At the altar of the Gods
Power is the name
To stay on top your reign
Money rules the game
The winner takes the gain
Wall street crash
Financial sting
Live for the dollar
Profit the share
The shame of generations past
Reflected in the city
Power is the name
To stay on top your reign
Money rules the game
The winner takes the gain
Come from the woods
Out of the hills
Come from the cities
Down from the moors
Make your way down the golden path
To stand free for the temple
Power is the name
To stay on top your reign
Money rules the game
The winner takes the gain
Come smash the old
Come cut the land
Come carve the stone
Come forge the steel
From out of desolation rise
The symbols of your power
Your towers of steel stand proud
Cathedrals of a new age
Let all with greed come worship here
At the altar of the Gods
Power is the name
To stay on top your reign
Money rules the game
The winner takes the gain
Wall street crash
Financial sting
Live for the dollar
Profit the share
The shame of generations past
Reflected in the city
Power is the name
To stay on top your reign
Money rules the game
The winner takes the gain
