Ode All'Avidità Songtext
von Simon Viklund

I, me, my, mine and myself
I′m convinced that everything that shines is gold
If I could only get my hands on a seed of gold I will soon be rich

I have seen how the rich smile so wide
Wealth leads straight to happiness
The seed of gold becomes fruit that gives me life

It hurts me, to see you lost like this
The jealousy grows in you
You are doomed to thirst for more
Nothing will quench this thirst

No!
This is everything I'm dreaming of!
Everything I want and everything I′m longing for!
If it's not give to me, I will take what I want!

Ahh!
What has the possessiveness awakened within you?
Ahh!
What has greed made you do?
Listen to me!


Silence! Out of my way!

Listen to me!

Excess for me!

Listen to me!

Other can have the leftovers!

No!

More!

No!

More!

NO!

MORE!

NO!

My treasures!
Diamonds!
Gold and silver!
My everything

Aah!
Look, your time has come!

I can feel my powers fade away
Fade away!


Aah!
The abyss is opening!

I can feel the flame of life flickering!
Flickering!

Everything you have collected turns to dust

Can I bring something across the river?

No!

Yes!

Never!

Please!

You-

Silence!

-Know

We all leave this world empty-handed

Everything is over now
Life is over now
Everything I own turns to dust
Everything is over now
Life is over now
The shadows finally devour me
No!
NO!
NO!
