This song is vaguely inspired by the movie Seven, with each of the six verses being about a different sin (in order): Greed, Averice, Pride, Wrath, Gluttony, Sloth. The title is an allusion to the seventh sin of Lust.
lyrics
You've come for your pound of flesh
Well I know your greed is quite a stench
You've cast your beady eyes over
Finery you perceive as mine
Nose slashed across your face
To keep you beauty down beneath our hate
Revenge yourself on me
Claws gleam and I am conscience free
You're here to eat your fill
But you'll bend the truth until it is your will
A final spiteful rage
Is quelled by your indifferent page
