[Verse 1]
Well, of all those seven deadly sins
I wore around my neck for him:
Hunger, Anger, Lust and Greed
Envy, Pride and Jealousy—
[Verse 2]
There was one, I guess, that was the worst of all
That gave a little push
Started the fall from grace that I took so hard
I took so long, so long and far
[Verse 3]
But I just couldn’t spend me another night
In the cold, cold bed of the butcher’s wife
So afraid to fall asleep, afraid to wake
And afraid to dream
[Verse 4]
No, I just couldn’t stay, I couldn’t wait it out
And bite my tongue for another hour
One more endless day
Day after night and night after day
[Verse 5]
Well, it’s been a two-year stint in no man’s land
Nobody here really gives a damn
So why can’t we call it a draw
In the bloody war to end all wars?
Well, of all those seven deadly sins
I wore around my neck for him:
Hunger, Anger, Lust and Greed
Envy, Pride and Jealousy—
[Verse 2]
There was one, I guess, that was the worst of all
That gave a little push
Started the fall from grace that I took so hard
I took so long, so long and far
[Verse 3]
But I just couldn’t spend me another night
In the cold, cold bed of the butcher’s wife
So afraid to fall asleep, afraid to wake
And afraid to dream
[Verse 4]
No, I just couldn’t stay, I couldn’t wait it out
And bite my tongue for another hour
One more endless day
Day after night and night after day
[Verse 5]
Well, it’s been a two-year stint in no man’s land
Nobody here really gives a damn
So why can’t we call it a draw
In the bloody war to end all wars?
