ZAB - 7

Album - 7 [Verse 1] I met them all at the same long table Name cards written in red Pride walked in with a crooked halo Sat down at the head Greed poured wine in a golden chalice Never passed it along Lust traced hearts on a paper napkin Humming some old love song [Chorus] Seven little temptations Lined up Calling my name Each one offers salvation Each one feeding the flame I keep counting my curses Like they’re medals I’ve won Seven little temptations And I’m dining with every one [Verse 2] Envy stares at the window’s mirror Wishing it was me Gluttony orders another platter Says “What’s one more bite gonna be?” Wrath taps knives to a restless rhythm Eyes like a loaded gun Sloth curls up in an empty corner Says “Wake me when it’s all done” [Chorus] Seven little temptations Lined up Calling my name Each one offers salvation Each one feeding the flame I keep counting my curses Like they’re medals I’ve won Seven little temptations And I’m dining with every one [Bridge] I raise my glass To the worst in me (oh) Every shadow Wants good company If I stand up Will they let me leave? Or are these chairs Built out of my beliefs? [Chorus] Seven little temptations Lined up Carving my name Every promise is poison Every blessing a blame I keep tracing my choices Back to where they begun Seven little temptations And I’m dancing with every one
