Greed Lyrics

In my opinion you need to feel in control of others destiny

It’s an addiction not unlike a crutch on which to lean

Power gained through your treachery

You left me fighting off potential jeopardy

Dedicating your life to your pure selfish need

How I yearned to be free

From your stigmatising hypocrisy

And all the while though controlling me

You never did come to terms with your unyielding

Greed, you take more than you’d ever need, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Greed, it’s so sickening to see

Yet this is your obsessive mentality

The burden from guilt you’ll never feel

You’re always looking for another hopeful you can deal

Devouring musicians dreams and leaving nothing but human debris

Are you so blind that you can’t see?

The broken promises you made and left with me

There’ll come a day when you’ll pay for your years of duplicity

How I yearned to be free

From your egocentric grandiosity

And all the while though controlling me

You couldn’t even admit your addiction to

Greed, you take more than you’d ever need, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Greed, it’s so sickening to see

Yet this is your obsessive mentality

How I yearned to be free

From your stigmatising hypocrisy

And all the while though controlling me

You never did come to terms with your unyielding

Greed, you take more than you’d ever need, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Greed, it’s so sickening to see

Yet this is your obsessive mentality

Greed, you’ve got no empathy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, heh, heh,

Greed, to your ego you’ll feed, with your narcissistic banality
