Theme

A lyrical cataloging of the **Seven Deadly Sins** (Greed, Pride, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Lust), describing how each sin manifests itself in a destructive way, leading the individual down a path of self-ruin.

Lyrics
Full of **greed** you sell your soul Full of **pride** a heavy load You eat yourself, **gluttony** Resent yourself you **envy** me Everything turns into **wrath** You **lust** yourself to death Deep fears that drive us Hid beneath disguises Judge the world within Forgive my **deadly sins** Procrastination always giving up Something better comes to interrupt Cast your verdict down to me Spare me your bleeding sympathy Only care how you appear Clearly see you can't see clear Deep fears that drive us Hid beneath disguises Judge the world within Forgive my **deadly sins** Deep fears that drive us Hid beneath disguises Judge the world within Forgive my **deadly sins** **Greed**, **gluttony**, **pride**, **envy**, **Wrath**, **sloth**, **lust**, **deadly seven** **Seven deadly sins** of mine On every street And corner lie These **seven deadly sins** of mine On every street And corner lie These **seven deadly sins** of mine On every street And corner lie These **seven deadly sins** On every street And corner lie These **seven deadly sins** of mine On every street And corner lie These **seven deadly sins** of mine On every street And corner lie These **seven deadly sins** of mine These **seven deadly sins** of mine **Deadly sins** of mine
