Seven Thoughts of Insanity

Despair Who will care That my life could end so sadly Torment Non-resent My meaning of life could be so bare But there is life There is hope Against the seven thoughts of insanity Who will go with me? Gossip Into your mind I grip The words that have no meaning Deception You can't fool me Into your hands you lead me But there is life There is hope Against the seven thoughts of insanity Who will go with me Violence Cut the silence No more death is feared But how can I escape this battered, suffering soul of mine Into your life I follow, desperately crossing the line But there is life There is hope Against the seven thoughts of insanity Who but myself will follow me? Greed, lust I want, I must My eyes roll away with grief Insanity Let me be The depth of wonder is free
