A cure but no disease
a punishment but no crime
A master but no slave
regret will come in time
Control every step in life
wipe out imperfection
Every mistake, every flaw
Still no satisfaction

It's stronger than me
I can't resist this need
Temptation to surrender
to the forces of greed

More and more and more and more
all wisdom is lost
Possess, possess, possess, possess
sanity at all cost
And among these ruins
in the ashes of civilisation
I stand by and cry

It's stronger than me
I can't resist this need
Temptation to surrender
To the forces of greed
