the dahlia disease

Singer:convictions

what is the price of ambition?

fearful and faithless vices of man

the cost of glory left us hollow and broken

woe and sorrow

this isn't meant to be

this isn't meant for me

fame is a fallacy!

today's idols and icons

continue to forget

where credit is due

you continue to forget where credit due

god make an example of this man

i have a confession

i have always wanted more

more money

more power

more me

i need!

i have always wanted more!

more fame

more girls

more pride

to feed!

i keep coming back for more

i've counted more money than memories

gambled with sin and prosperity

you can't buy. salvation!

salvation!

when did greed become the fuel?

i have a confession

i have always wanted more

more money

more power

more me

i need!

i have always wanted more!

more fame

more girls

more pride

to feed!

i keep coming back for more

more money

more power

more me

i need!

i have always wanted more!

more fame

more girls

more pride

to feed!

i keep coming back for more

this is not the end of me

what is the price i'm willing to pay?

this is not the end of me!

no money

no power. you're all i need!

i have always wanted more

no fame

no girls. it's not the life for me

i keep coming back for more

surrender!

what is the price that you're willing to pay?
