Neon lights reflect in oil-slicked streets,
A city breathing in the smell of heat,
Past the shadows where the hollow-eyed wait,
I found the doors to a silver-lined fate.

Open the gates to the buffet of sin!
Let the feast of the greedy begin!
Belly of gluttony, soul on the line!
Everything’s ours, and everything’s mine!

Piles of meat and a river of grease,
The hunger within me will never find peace,
Plate after plate till the ceramic is gone,
I’ll chew through the night till the breaking of dawn!

Stuffed to the marrow, my spirit is thin,
The debt for the dinner is paid in my skin,
Too much! Too fast! It’s all just a blur,
I’m drowning in fat in this city of purr!

(The meat turns to lead inside of my chest,)
(A demon of iron that gives me no rest,)
(Regret is a poison, regret is the bile,)
(I should have stayed hungry, just for a while.)

Oh, the shame… of the plate,
Heavy now… I feel the weight,
Greed has had… its final say,
Wishing for… another day.
