about

pursuit of greed

track-by-track series available on my YT channel where you'll find all the information about every song from the album :)

lyrics

Open your eyes!

I don´t want to see this world
Going down in flames
Flames of lust and flames of greed
Burning humanity’s last remains

This deceptive dominance
Has blinded our sight
There’s no equilibrium
We are the world’s true blight

We don´t see anything but ourselves
We are creatures wanting to possess

Open your eyes
And take a look at our society
We want to rise
Despite our decay of morality
How many more
Signs do we need
Until agreed
That we are wrong

No conscience, no mercy
No feelings in the way we act
We’re becoming the unworthy
Mother Nature’s ‘bout to counteract

We are too self-confident
To see what we have done
The Earth will be the monument
Of deeds soon not to be undone

We don’t try to understand
Don’t let it be too late for change

Open your eyes
And take a look at our society
We want to rise
Despite our decay of morality
How many more
Signs do we need
Until agreed
That we are wrong

solo (Bankov)

Open your eyes
And take a look at our society
We want to rise
Despite our decay of morality
How many more
Signs do we need
Until agreed
That we are wrong
Open your eyes!
