Afterglow

Predisposed to exceed every boundary
Eternal hunger
Disconnected in aspiration
Far beyond all rational desire
Extravagance and arrogance
hand in hand towards the end

Driven by the concept of insatiable greed
The state is emergent but we can't contain our need

Are we too proud to be reminded

Are we too proud to be reminded
Where this road will lead
The golden shroud has left us blinded
And hostile to recede

Self-absorbed, prosperity is the only goal
One minor sacrifice is unthinkable
The current will correct itself
And we'll be left with no option but to lose it all

We reach the point of no return
Without a vestige of concern
Repentful in the afterglow
As side effects begin to show

Driven by the concept of insatiable greed
The state is emergent but we can't contain our need

Are we too proud to be reminded
Where this road will lead
The golden shroud has left us blinded
And hostile to recede

A competition that can't be won
Discontent is the recurring outcome
Far beyond all rational desire
Extravagance and arrogance
Hand in hand towards the end
