You stand in the shadow of all your things
Your heart feeling heavy and weak
It's dark behind the greed in your mind
You follow so thoughtlessly
You sneer at the people who count their blessings
Your heart filled with ego and pride
You can't understand what happened to your plan
That emptiness every night
Their hand makes your heart bleed
For everything that you don't need
Consumption it's a disease
People power money and greed
You work so hard as your life goes by
Your memories bitter and bleak
It's deep seeded bound to be repeated
A question you can not see
oh let's see it baby
You run to the habit that got you here
More space for the things you buy
You're craving something new ooo a shiny balloon
Your happiness floats on by
Their hand makes your heart bleed
For everything that you don't need
Consumption it's a disease
People power money and greed
It's relentless this endless message
Until you buy their belief
You're told you need it or incompleted
Oh what an ugly machine
But can you see how it can work now
Just simply release
And let go of the things you sure enough
Don't really need
You're too close to see the dream
Of what this really means
I know we can beat this scene
And they will come around
So let loose that nasty collar
Take a walk and smell the flowers
A life of less will not devourer
And the gates will come on down
Their hand makes your heart bleed
For everything that you don't need
Consumption it's a disease
People power money and greed
I want it I want it oh yeah
I want it I want it oh yeah
I want it I want it oh yeah
I need it I need it oh yeah
I need it I need it oh yeah
You're too close to see the dream
Of what this really means
I know we can beat this scene
And they will come around
So let loose that nasty collar
Take a walk and smell the flowers
A life of less will not devourer
And the gates will come on down
