Lyrics
available for download at: http://joeym.bandcamp.com/ False paradise Eve sucks the life out of Adam Creeps like a snake on a cold grey floor Shylock longs for his pound of flesh The wolves run wild A million lives torn asunder The devil’s breath blows at your door The queen rubs salt in the king’s open wound Blood on the tiles And the fathers of greed Have a thief for every child Avarice the light In your false paradise Cain is the slayer of Abel Lost in a moment of treacherous plight Release the monster that dwells inside The stakes are high And the darkness thrives When the claw reaches high Create the divide In your false paradise Clutch at the ring of power Scepter high and a heart in stone Avarice flows thru your veins alive The price of a lie
