Song Lyrics

If you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush its tender petals
With me you`ll have no escape
And at the same time there`ll be nowhere to settle
I trample down all life in my wake
I eat it up and take the cake
I just avert my eyes to the pain
Of someone`s loss helping my gain

If you gave me a dream for my pocket
You`d be plugging in the wrong socket
With me there`s no room for the future
With me there`s no room with a view at all

I am out of season all year around
Hear machinery roar to my empty sound
Touch my heart and feel winter
Hold my hand and be doomed forever

If you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush its tender petals
With me you`ll have no escape
And at the same time there`ll be nowhere to settle
And if you`re wondering by now who I am
Look no further than the mirror
Cause I am the Greed and Fear
And every ounce of Hate in you
