Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.

lyrics
A Drop In The Ocean
It’s been a long road to banish this beast
Like a fear to hold some tears to chase
Just an island of grief please leave it alone Because the trouble with plenty is that it’s never enough
It seems a long while since I felt your touch
took a warm smile to make my piece and seems lonely mile that got me here
It seems a long while since I felt the earth
It took a warm smile to make my peace and it seems a lonely mile that got me here you know the problem with nothing there’s always more to lose
It’s the greed of emotion, river to cross like some primitive calling, you cry in the night just a fuel for the angry
The thirst for the dark for some criminal falling you run with the tide. The thirst for the dark
It’s the greed of a motion, river to cross
Like some primitive calling, you cry in the night
Just a fuel for the angry, thirst for the dark
For some criminal calling you run with the tide
It was a coming together that kept us apart
Because on the ground where you stand you’re standing
A trimmer of life
In the breath of that you’re taking a test of the times
It’s the world of your choosing
Survival turns the key and
It’s been a long road to banish this beast
Like a fear to hold some tears to chase
Just an island of grief please leave it alone Because the trouble with plenty is that it’s never enough
It seems a long while since I felt your touch
took a warm smile to make my piece and seems lonely mile that got me here
It seems a long while since I felt the earth
It took a warm smile to make my peace and it seems a lonely mile that got me here you know the problem with nothing there’s always more to lose
It’s the greed of emotion, river to cross like some primitive calling, you cry in the night just a fuel for the angry
The thirst for the dark for some criminal falling you run with the tide. The thirst for the dark
It’s the greed of a motion, river to cross
Like some primitive calling, you cry in the night
Just a fuel for the angry, thirst for the dark
For some criminal calling you run with the tide
It was a coming together that kept us apart
Because on the ground where you stand you’re standing
A trimmer of life
In the breath of that you’re taking a test of the times
It’s the world of your choosing
Survival turns the key and
