"Avarice, or the desire of gain, Is a universal passion, which operates at All times, at all places, and upon all persons." - David Hume Live long the curse of Midas. Be warned of greed and golden pastures. For years, I've often sat and pondered "What more should I obtain" "What else is left to conquer?" Power, yes everlasting power Obtained by wealth and gold A force that I can touch and hold Ignorance and avarice Hand in hand as one Servant, bring my plate, I have a hunger For I cannot live on my riches alone Servant, night is close, where is my daughter? What do you mean she's on the lawn? Call her name, bring her to me. What do you mean she's stiff and cold? My own blood now a trophy? My Dionysis, I've paid your price in full. My kingdom lies in ruins from their king, From my own hand my kingdom lies in ruins I realize now my life's importance I realize now my lesson learned Each step I take toward golden fortune That's one more foot in the ground Please lift this curse from my head Please lift this curse from my hands Just let me wash my hands of this
