Contentions silver gold

We've been searching for a way to climb out, I think its time that we give up now, this cold world wants nothing but the worst for us.
Our expensive tastes have become acquired wastes, are we progressing in the right direction? This is the consequence of our own decisions.
We are at war with the truth in our hearts destined for more than we all bargained for
We bet lives guilt free on the stock floor, raise the price, raise the price, give me more with no discretion, and mislead passion
We will always be a world at war.
Why has the power of want surpassed the presence of need?
Do you remember what it's like to live life without this present greed?
We'll bite the hand that feeds Walk a mile in my shoes, If you really could, would you? and what would you do if the world we knew was a different place turned it's back and it changed it's face?
What would you do If the world we knew, was a different place turned its back on you, and it changed it's face?
We are the answer Why has the power of want surpassed the presence of need?
If this is all that we've got, how will we start to succeed?
