Seven Deadly Sins - Natalie Merchant

作词：Natalie Merchant/Natalie Merchant

作曲：Natalie Merchant/Natalie Merchant

Well of all those seven deadly sins I

Wore around my neck for him

Hunger anger lust and greed

Envy pride and jealousy

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 high

I took so long so long and far

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

No I just couldn't stay I couldn't wait it out

Bite my tongue for another hour

One more endless day

Day after night and night after day

Well it's been a two year stint in No Man's Land

Nobody here really gives a damn

So why don't we call it a draw in the bloody war

To end all wars

In the bloody war

In the bloody way

In the bloody bloody war

In the bloody bloody war

Well I'm far too quick with the poison pen

Can't believe I'm writing again

After all these God damned years

And some day when the ghosts have all gone home

Far too late to be rattling bones

Then will you lay me down

Lay me down

Oh will you let it be

Such a bloody war

Such a bloody war

Such a bloody bloody war

Such a bloody war

Such a bloody war

Such a bloody bloody war
