Avarice (Greed)

All I ever wanted
Was to have it all
And, oh God, how I've been haunted
Like the Romans did fall

Desires turn to need
And emptiness turns to greed

Brick by brick I
Build this prison
And all these thoughts
They will stow me away

Throw away the key
There is no hope for me
I've been locked out
There's no hope for me

All hope is gone
What has my life become?
All hope is gone
What has my life become?

What have I done?
I've gained so much
But at what cost?
Help me
I've lost myself

All hope is gone
What has my life become?
All hope is gone
What has my life become?

Destroy my everything
The gates will open and
Hell begins to sing
Rip the wings from the angels' back
And see them bleed
No longer will the silence ring

I want it all
Wasted away
This is more than I have bargained for
I wanted it all for myself
Wasted away
This is more than I have bargained for
I wanted it all for myself
Wasted away
This is more than I have bargained for
I wanted it all for myself
Wasted away
This is more than I have bargained for
I wanted it all for myself
