Seven: Envy — Original Song by Nikki Sings (Dark Bubblegum Pop)

“Seven: Envy” is the first song in my Seven Deadly Sins story collection. Long ago in Ikkin’s keep, the crown was drawn away into the dark below, where the Seven began to wake. This first chapter follows the heroine as she enters Envy’s domain, a mirror-lit stage where comparison whispers sweetly and every reflection seems to ask why someone else was chosen first. This one is dark bubblegum pop: pretty, poisonous, theatrical, and a little green around the teeth. —Nikki LYRICS [Verse 1] Look at you, little saint All lace and a borrowed face She gets the gold, you get the wait You blink, and they take your place You wear your smile like a bandage I know what it hides inside That hollow ache in your good little hands When the pretty girls glide by [Pre-Chorus] I can hear it That tiny crack When they laugh for her And they don’t look back You want to be chosen You want to be seen But they keep their hands Where you can’t reach [Chorus] Seven green teeth, bite down Seven green teeth, right now Everyone shines except you Everyone wins but you do Seven green teeth, smile wide Seven green teeth, swallow pride They got the crown, you got the bruise Tell me, tell me, what do you lose? [Verse 2] She walks in with the silk on her skin And the room turns soft for her He says her name like a prayer in his mouth Like yours was never there That girl gets the roses, the ride, the ring You get the leftovers, the doubt You keep counting all the pretty things And still you come up out [Pre-Chorus] I can hear it That tiny crack When they praise her loud And they fade you back You want their gold You want their glow But babe, the mirror Already knows [Chorus] Seven green teeth, bite down Seven green teeth, right now Everyone shines except you Everyone wins but you do Seven green teeth, smile wide Seven green teeth, swallow pride They got the crown, you got the bruise Tell me, tell me, what do you lose? [Bridge] Oh, you could have been lovely Oh, you could have been sweet But you keep your hands on the things That were never meant for me Look at them clapping Look at them bend You don’t want to hate them You want to be them [Final Chorus] Seven green teeth, bite down Seven green teeth, right now Everyone shines except you Everyone wins but you do Seven green teeth, smile wide Seven green teeth, swallow pride They got the crown, you got the bruise Tell me, tell me, what do you lose? Seven green teeth, hold fast Seven green teeth, at last If you can’t have it, make them see You were born to envy me #SevenDeadlySins #Envy #DarkPop #BubblegumPop #OriginalSong #OriginalMusic #StorySong #FairytaleMusic #VillainSong #FantasyMusic #IndieMusic #NikkiOriginal
