I've watched the cycling gears of greed steer us into this downfall It is a sovereign A trinket of beneficial faith Its nothing more than a prayer And it remains unsafe Theres brown eyes have witnessed its soulless allure A witness that it has disguised its carnal behavior lying in the embrace of blind offerings It strides without hesitance But remains unsure This entity A screaming plague you will soon have to face Burns like a star in a beautiful rage It teases its victim This monster with a will all its own Devoids us of humility Feeds us with this cankerous growth for days at a time And there's no turning away The weak and devout are both taken by this blistering sin Suit of doubt warring with a conscious and a desire It calls out a promise only to wield And we tell ourselves that it will pay off in the end Before this machine gives way To devour reason and life This spirited bond that glances on the brink of an apocolypse Consumes until there's nothing left and shadows the bystanders.
