Everything in moderation three words Seven deadly sins Never heard Love just wasn't enough for lust Love fades Lust burns til satisfied Needs weren't enough for greed Just wasn't cutting it More became a must Confidence didn't go a long way for pride A boost sat you high enough to see the table But you still had to get fed Satisfaction wasn't sweet enough for gluttony What worth was the taste of victory? If the victor was numb? Anger wasn't fulfilling for wrath Can't hold a candle to An all consuming pillar of fire Relaxing only got sloth halfway there Swaying in content was nothing like Sinking in lament Envy is blind to self worth Vision obscured By your successes You are enough Three words Seven deadly sins Never heard

Sins' Lament
Everything in moderation three words Seven deadly sins Never heard Love just wasn't enough for lust Love fades Lust burns til satisfied Needs weren't enough for greed Just wasn't cutting it More became a must Confidence didn't go a long way for pride A boost sat you high enough to see the table But you still had to get fed Satisfaction wasn't sweet enough for gluttony What worth was the taste of victory? If the victor was numb? Anger wasn't fulfilling for wrath Can't hold a candle to An all consuming pillar of fire Relaxing only got sloth halfway there Swaying in content was nothing like Sinking in lament Envy is blind to self worth Vision obscured By your successes You are enough Three words Seven deadly sins Never heard
