Motives Golden Calf
Knocked down and force fed
Tongue tied and brain bled out
Kept me dizzy under the light of the fluorescents
It's hard for you to break away
Because diamonds are forever
Daily, we are plagued with new frontiers
And an insatiable appetite for gratification
Wants become needs and our needs are no longer
You'll sacrifice our well being
And it's a price you justify
Living your life on every peak and every valley on the edge of a knife
The handle worn down because your grip too tight
The serrations were the only place that you could fit
They were the only ones close enough take you in
And now they tear you apart
It's not a clean slice
And it never heals right
Generosity lost in the vast field of avarice
I always think, maybe what they're selling me isn't of significance to my life
I wave my hand but you don't see me
Eyes fixed on gold
You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?
