This is a song I have been working on for a concept album I am writing. The album tells the story of a greedy corporation who deprives a man of his health and happiness in order to make a profit. The man eventually meets a girl who saves him and helps him get revenge. Throughout the album I plan to have both heavy and soft songs, representing the evil of the corporation and the love between the two main characters respectively. This is a loud song about how a greedy person will eventually become a victim of his own self nature.
Greed is Suicide
I am excess I'm malaise
I'm what you think but do not say
When I get control of your head
I use you up and leave you for dead
I am your greed
I can’t be taken away
I am your greed
You will not dare disobey
I am your greed
I know just what you desire
I am your greed
I won’t leave till the whole world’s on fire
I am in your politics
Up to the head of government
And I will teach your corporations
Suicidal masturbation
Listen to me
I know what you see
Listen to me
I know what you could be
Listen to me
Wealth, power, sex every hour
Listen to me
Close your eyes and set me free
Close your fist
And make everyone pay
If they get in your way
Open your mouth
And shove it all in
Until you suffocate
Greed is simply suicide
Greed is simply suicide
Greed is simply suicide
Greed is simply suicide
