In this wasteland of avarice, I struggle to pull silver threads From this gray cover of smog. The sound of brittle bones aching, Drowned out by the quaking footsteps of titans. Men, who would be gods, push for you to play your hand. Knowing from their fingers, have you been dealt the cards. A deck of diamonds, devoid of Kings with hearts. Honor has been dead, since Pride married Malice and, Greed shacked up with strife. 21st century freedom. A modest monetary price, For ownership stake of your life.

Kings With No Hearts
In this wasteland of avarice, I struggle to pull silver threads From this gray cover of smog. The sound of brittle bones aching, Drowned out by the quaking footsteps of titans. Men, who would be gods, push for you to play your hand. Knowing from their fingers, have you been dealt the cards. A deck of diamonds, devoid of Kings with hearts. Honor has been dead, since Pride married Malice and, Greed shacked up with strife. 21st century freedom. A modest monetary price, For ownership stake of your life.
