Sloth

Sometimes when I'm alone
I imagine that the world is a mirror
And in my minds eye behold my dark inner nature
I've been wasting time on this time honoured whore
'Til I get so confused I can't it see anymore
And I have crawled where I should have seen the signs
Dragging my feet when I could have been flying
Sometimes when I'm sad
I drink to the health of my torments
And dance at the altar
To the tune of a drunken black tango
I've been wasting time on this time honoured whore
'Til I get so confused I can't see it anymore
Wastes my youth trying to settle old scores
Dragging my feet when I could've been flying
Dragging my feet when I should've been flying
Dragging my feet
