The Eighth Deadly Sin

Contributed by The_Cowardly_Lion on Saturday, 10th December 2005 @ 09:48:33 PM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics



"Believe in me..."
The starting words of the beginning of the end.
The dotted "i" on the signature sign of my contract to
The warm sands of hell.

"Remember me..."
The words she said docking at the bay.
I stepped into the boat, where I took my last look
At a girl I loved, and the world i left behind

"Whats your story?"
The Boatman asked on our way to Hades front door.
"Youre not the same as my usual client
They're murderers, scumbags and thugs"

"I know," I said
"Im the worst, I'm the one with a heart
And I wear it on my sleeve... Least I used to,
Til the day it was stolen, as I was strollin, to a place i never reached."

Life had its kicks
The Boatman laughed, as did I
As we sailed down the river...
Styx

But I committed the deadliest sin,
The deadliest sin of the lot.
Loving You

"Well aloha"
Said the man with the horns and the two hairy legs
As I payed off the Boatman for bringing me to hell
Safely

The man with the horns and the two hairy legs
He just signed off my name
On a clipboard with pegs!

"Whats it like here?"
I asked, he replied
Without being polite that
"Youre better off here than with her"

"I know your type.
Youre bound to fit in, but you can make amends
Just be true to your friends and Ill send you back
With the Boatman"

"You know what to do
Just stay true, and
Stay away from that woman you knew, and
I wont be seein you

Life had its kicks
The Boatman laughed, as did I
As we sailed down the river...
Styx

But I committed the deadliest sin,
The deadliest sin of the lot.
Loving You

Its not so bad here
You go out with the guys
For your whiskeys and wines
There's no such thing as crimes here

As for the man with the horns and the two hairy legs?
Hes more like a friend than anything else
The seven deadly sins are free here

Glutony bares weight
But lust is great
The only thing not allowed...
Is number eight

The deadliest sin of the lot
Loving You
