Killers of the soul, they're all around

Stealing dreams, bringing us down

Watch out for them, they're hard to see

But they can destroy you, you and me

Laziness creeps in, a silent thief

Killing ambition, leaving us bereft

It whispers softly, \"Rest a while\"

But steals our purpose, mile by mile

Anger flares up, a fiery blaze

Killing wisdom, clouding our ways

It blinds our judgment, makes us see red

And leaves us broken, wishing we were dead

Fear takes hold, a chilling embrace

Killing dreams, leaving us in a daze

It whispers doubts, plants seeds of fear

And keeps us trapped, year after year

Ego swells up, a monstrous pride

Killing growth, turning us inside out

It blinds us to our faults, makes us believe

We're better than all, nothing to achieve

Jealousy gnaws at, a bitter green

Killing peace, filling us with spleen

It poisons our hearts, makes us resent

The success of others, a bitter lament

Killers of the soul, they're all around

Stealing dreams, bringing us down

Watch out for them, they're hard to see

But they can destroy you, you and me
