Motives - Golden Calf lyrics

Knocked down and force fed Tongue tied and brain bled out Kept me dizzy under the light of the fluorescents It's hard for you to break away Because diamonds are forever Daily, we are plagued with new frontiers And an insatiable appetite for gratification Wants become needs and our needs are no longer You'll sacrifice our well being And it's a price you justify Living your life on every peak and every valley on the edge of a knife The handle worn down because your grip too tight The serrations were the only place that you could fit They were the only ones close enough take you in And now they tear you apart It's not a clean slice And it never heals right Generosity lost in the vast field of avarice I always think, maybe what they're selling me isn't of significance to my life I wave my hand but you don't see me Eyes fixed on gold You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you? Supply and demand (demand supply)
