Have you ever wondered?
What greed took away?
You lost the love you craved for
Now think of it and weigh

Where you live, what you drive
Or the gold you wear
Have you ever noticed?
Few seem to care

You sit on a mound of pride
And build a ship of greed
Money is all you think of
And money is all you need

Your purse is full of money
Your morals all are gone
No time to see the setting sun
Or hear the birds at dawn.

You are full of envy
A weakened heart you hold
Aloof and lonely you remain
Illness you behold

You think that you’re rich,
But have no one to care
On a bed you lie alone
Helpless over there

It’s then that you come to know
Happiness is not around
The one you loved is far away
New love cannot be found

Friends, love and happiness
With wealth cannot be bought
Can never be nursed with greed
But only by the heart

It is sad but yet is true
And funny as it seems
Greed nurses nightmares,
But never gentle dreams
