Avarice

Heads underwater, looking for help at last

Find it in a photograph of how we were

Piling up, stacking high and shutting down

But the hunger keeps digging on and on

Just when you thought you got away with it

You're losing grip

You're losing it

Picking away at the cracks in the mask

Unravel everything, till nothing's left

Trying so hard just to fake it

That what you have's not who you are

We're living way beyond our means

The flashing lights and TV screens

Selling a thirst for plastic fantasy

Spend it all myself trying to be somebody else

What keeps us warm is wanting more

With every passing moment, we give into the greed

Taking everything we want, but nothing that we need

With every fleeting second the chase of gain consumes

You think you're owning something, but something's owning you

Trying so hard just to fake it

Trying so hard just to fake it

Trying so hard just to fake it

That what you have's not who you are

We're living way beyond our means

The flashing lights and TV screens

Selling a thirst for plastic fantasy

Spend it all myself trying to be somebody else

What keeps us warm is wanting more

Just when you thought you got away with it

Heads underwater, looking for help at last

Find it in a photograph of how we were

Piling up, stacking high and shutting down

But the hunger keeps digging on and on

Breed, consume, destroy, repeat

(It's all you'll ever be)

Breed, consume, destroy, repeat

(It's all you'll ever be, it's all you'll ever be)

Breed, consume, destroy, repeat

(It's all you'll ever be)

Breed, consume, destroy, repeat

(It's all you'll ever be, it's all you'll ever be)

We're living way beyond our means

The flashing lights and TV screens

Selling a thirst for plastic fantasy

Spend it all myself trying to be somebody else

What keeps us warm is wanting more
