Greed For Your Love

Bursting with blood my fingertips pulse.

You didn't forget me...at least immediately.

So here I will hover and feed off your love,

I'll listen from the middle instead of above.

Will you fill up my wounds with your styrofoam blood until I forget?

Greed for your love... I bleed through this glove.

So why's it aching when I'm laughing at the world?

Greed for your love...

A quote and a question on a screen suppressed.

I know it's not right 'cause it's a second impression.

But I'd rather I taste my desires of Earth

and fill my mind with jewels for all they are worth

than discover a diamond decays to a rock and time doesn't turn.

Greed for your love...

I bleed through this glove.

So why's it aching when I'm laughing at the world?

Greed for your love...

'Cause who are you... to tell me what to do?

I will unwrap him just like a present

and I will discard him just when I want to thank you...

Greed for your love...

I bleed through this glove.

So why's it aching when I'm laughing at the world?

Greed for your love...

Greed for your love...

I bleed through this glove.

So why's it aching when I'm laughing at the world?

Greed for your love...
