“Avarice” is another word for extreme greed. The song itself targets the greed often obvserved within society.
The song’s title is also one of the original 7 deadly sins, which ties into the religious themes that Disturbed often bring to the table; especially with their second album – Believe.
[Verse 1]
Politics and evil
All one in the same
Satan hides behind a different name
[Chorus]
Take these chains away
Free my hands from bondage
Can't explain our way
Avarice will kill you in time
[Verse 2]
Violent upheaval
Cities drenched in flame
Wickedness we know we can contain
[Chorus]
Take these chains away
Free my hands from bondage
Can't explain our way
Avarice will kill you in time
[Bridge]
Who will we murder now?
See what we are becoming
An onyx veil that filters out the light
I'll savor this anger
My hate makes me stronger
[Chorus]
Free my hands from bondage
Take these chains away
Running from destruction
Avarice will kill you in time
Kill you in time
