lyrics

Attain that which we desire
Is the message we take home
But with all rods in the fire
We cant make it on our own

We feel the guilt
Of wanting more
But until the scales tilt
We can't settle the score

Artificial light shows us the dark
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
Their bite is worse than their bark
Can't taste the sweet when it's so sharp
Artificial light shows us the dark
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
Their bite is worse than their bark
We've been damned from the start

Affluence is the goal
Or so we are told
You and me, we foot the bill
Loosening our hold
Old faces in a new role
Too corrupt to break the mould
You and me, we foot the bill
Keep reaching for the gold

As we spend, we forget
Those that face real struggle
Ethics and morals put to rest
Buried in social rubble

Blind to that which threatens all
Ignorance is bliss
Cash won't save you when you fall
No protection from death's kiss

Artificial light shows us the dark
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
Their bite is worse than their bark
Can't taste the sweet when it's so sharp
Artificial light shows us the dark
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
Their bite is worse than their bark
We've been damned from the start

Affluence is the goal
Or so we are told
You and me, we foot the bill
Loosening our hold
Old faces in a new role
Too corrupt to break the mould
You and me, we foot the bill
Keep reaching for the gold

Ignore the fact it's all a farce
Their bite is worse than their bark
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
We've been damned from the start
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
Their bite is worse than their bark
Ignore the fact it's all a farce
We've been damned from the start

Affluence is the goal
Or so we are told
You and me, we foot the bill
Loosening our hold
Old faces in a new role
Too corrupt to break the mould
You and me, we foot the bill
Keep reaching for the gold
