Lazy Bones (Sloth)

_______________ A song in the playlist for the 7 Deadly sins, Introducing "Sloth" _______________ The clock keeps ticking, but I don’t move an inch, Shadows stretch long, in this hollow abyss. The world keeps turning, but I’ve lost my place, Fading like echoes that time won’t trace. I hear the whispers— “Get up, get out, break free”— But the weight of nothing is swallowing me. A prisoner wrapped in my own design, Heavy-limbed, losing my mind. Lazy bones, sinking in the deep, Where the monsters crawl and the angels weep. A ghost in the static, a void in the glow, Lazy bones, I’m rotting slow. Lazy bones, the darkness spreads, Whispering lullabies of things unsaid. A statue of regret in a world moving on, Lazy bones, I’m already gone. The mirror’s cracking, but I don’t even flinch, A stranger stares back—skeletal and dim. The phone keeps ringing, but I let it fade, Buried in silence, where my dreams decay. I feel the pull— "Wake up, ignite"— But the chains of sloth keep strangling the light. A puppet unstrung, no will to fight, Falling deeper into the night. Lazy bones, sinking in the deep, Where the monsters crawl and the angels weep. A ghost in the static, a void in the glow, Lazy bones, I’m rotting slow. Lazy bones, the darkness spreads, Whispering lullabies of things unsaid. A statue of regret in a world moving on, Lazy bones, I’m already gone. Outside, the sun bleeds gold, but I’m ash in the cold, Lost in the embers of the time I sold. The fire’s out, the chill sets in, Lazy bones, too numb to win. Lazy bones, the end is near, I’m drowning in the void, but I don’t feel fear. The clock stops ticking, silence grows, Lazy bones, I let go. _____________________________ ©️2025 Sloth
