It's evil and it's daunting...

"I am sick with wanting and it's evil and it's daunting how I let everything I cherish lay to waste.
I am lost in greed, this time it's definitely me, I point fingers but there's no one there to blame.


I am sick of wanting and it's evil how it's got me, and every day is worse than the one before.
The more I have the more I think I'm almost where I need to be, if only I could get a little more.


Something has me acting like someone I don't wanna be.
Something has me acting like someone I know isn't me.
Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed.


Temporary is my time, ain't nothing on this world that's mine except the will I found to carry on.
Free is not your right to choose, it's answering what's asked of you. 
To give the love you find until it's gone.

A need for something, now let me break it down again.

A need for something, but not more medicine.

Something has me acting like someone I don't wanna be.

Something has me acting like someone I know isn't me.

Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed."
