Killer (The First Ghost)

from Slice of Life by Local Motive

/

lyrics

Desire is the killer. It's not lacking what you want.
It will give you to the darkness. Its sole purpose is to taunt.
It's a mighty awesome stranger. It's a demon who can haunt.
It will lead you to your madness. It will feed you to the dogs.

It's a killer (repeats)

Can you live without desire? What keeps your head above the tide?
When you lack internal fire will you save those at your side?
Can you balance what you need and what you want without your pride?
Will you slack because you're human? That's the nature of mankind.

It's a killer, it's a killer. Do you feel the need to die?
Has the craving got so awful that you'd gladly give your life?
When your hands possess the fortune, will it ever be enough?
Or will you continue searching cause it's everything you want?
