Old Vices Return

I guess I'm going to have to keep wondering when you'll look back and face the real self you're letting wander in the shadows. You're refusing to trace your footsteps into reality and instead keep trudging towards what appears to be a selfish facade of indulgence. Like gluttony and lust, filling your plate too much and satisfying your very needs, you'll only end up alone and pathetic -- a perfect example of who you are versus who you could have been. Face your deadly vices, count them all on two hands, but don't dare look to me for help when your throat is clamping and you're beginning to choke. Perhaps speaking up with truth earlier would have helped you in the end. Instead, the filth lined the back of your tongue, making you the eighth vice on my list.
