Seven deadly sins
within myself it begins
Every little lie built up
Now compromise for
Anger~
I lost control
Gave it up
And screamed for my soul
Lust~
I stared with such need~
Every barren love
Left me yearning for a seed~
Envy~
I was wanting to be you~
You looked so happy while i was so
Blue~
Gluttony took over and said
Eat it all until your dead
Greed told me
That I
could make it real
Take it all
In fact, just steal
Sloth told me that I could stay still
Let the water flow past
Make it real
Finally pride stepped in and said-
Nobody beats me, im the best at what i've led
Seven deadly sins
like snakes crawling up my spine
Reasons to begin
But feelings start to feel sublime...
