Oh I wish to want for nothing

I'll leave all I have to rot

To be pulled down into the earth

And finally be forgot

Oh I wish to want for nothing

Take the clothes from my back

To leave all that I've ever owned

To burn and turn to ash

Oh I beg let me want for nothing

I'll cross your palm with gold

To free me off my earthy wants

Just to know, if only to know i'll die old

Hope, release me

I beg of you, the passion that consumes me

How greed overwhelms the grieving

How hunger can eat itself

Oh but desire

Sinks like a rock in my stomach

It rears it's serpentine head

And I want it all

The dawn chorus was wrote for me

The blades of grass I trample beneath my feet

Are mine all mine

Every cloud

Every star

That roams through the sky

I eat them alive, I eat them alive

Every glance

Every teardrop

That falls from your eye

I eat them alive, I eat them alive

Every man

Every woman

Everyone you've ever known

I'll eat them alive, I'll eat them alive

I'll rip

And I'll tear

Until I'm alone

Then I'll eat myself, i'll eat myself alive

With a hunger unknown for a thousand years

I'll pillage and take what's rightfully mine

Because how could i have been so foolish

To not see I was centre of it all

So I'll bite and I'll chew and i'll swallow you whole

And i'll watch your cities will burn with kindling of bone

My vengeance won't be quick it'll take a hundred years

And you'd all do the same at the end of the world

And it eats itself

It eats itself
