Preaching The Converted Lyrics - Magellan

[verse 1] 

I hear you laughing loudly 

But I'm not laughing with you 

Well you may be joking first 

But I'll be the one who has the last laugh 

[verse 2] 

You call yourself "progressive" 

I say it's all regressive 

You think you can stand in judgment 

So listen here and I'll remind you 

["chorus"] 

Preaching the converted 'cause it's all you know 

Music's dead because it's all about the money now 

And you don't even know who you are anymore 

"put it out somehow" - 

And the business man laughs all the way to the bank 

And he's counting fast and he's laughing 

Hard.laughing loud 

[2nd time only] 

And he's counting fast and he's laughing 

Hard.laughing loud 

And you don't even know who owns you anymore 

"put it out somehow" - "put it out somehow" 

And the business man laughs all the way to the bank 

And he's counting fast and he's laughing 

Hard.laughing loud 

And he's counting fast and he's laughing 

Hard.laughing loud 

Can you take it? 

[cadence] 

In our test of wills you got us for a song 

Music's dead you sold us out for much too long 

Preaching the converted...... 

[verse 3] 

I've given you all I have 

But you say I must find more 

"i've got to dig deeper-i've got to see 

All the way within my soul" 

[verse 4] 

You may call it inspiration 

But I'd call it desperation 

We're wasting our moments for now 

Reliving the past - again and again 

[repeat with "full chorus"] 

[bridge - aba? ] 

A game of tin soldiers is all that we're playing here 

But nobody wins 

Well it doesn't mean anything 

'cause it isn't all your saying now 

But I hope I'm invited for the ride 

Just in case we end our test of wills 

Yes I've seen much stranger things in my 

Days...... 

[cadenza] 

Preaching still........... 

Preaching the converted in our test of 

Wills................
