Seven deadly sins

Seven ways to win

Seven holy paths to hell

And your trip begins

Seven downward slopes

Seven bloodied hopes

Seven are your burning fires

Seven your desires...

I count the heads of those unborn

The accursed ones, I'll find them all

And if you die by your own hand
Am/E Em
As a suicide you shall be damned
Em C/E
And if you try to save your soul
Am/E Em
I will torment you, you shall not grow old

With every second and passing breath

You'll be so alone, your soul will bleed to death
