Vice
Vice is a practice, behavior, or habit generally considered immoral, sinful, criminal, rude, depraved, or degrading in the associated society. In more minor usage, vice can refer to a fault, a negative character trait, a defect, an infirmity, or a bad or unhealthy habit (such as an addiction to smoking). Vices are usually associated with a transgression in a person's character or temperament rather than their morality. Synonyms for vice include fault, sin, depravity, iniquity, wickedness, and corruption.
The opposite of vice is virtue.
Etymology
The modern English term that best captures its original meaning is the word vicious, which means "full of vice". In this sense, the word vice comes from the Latin word vitium, meaning "failing or defect".
(This meaning is completely separate from the word vice when used as an official title to indicate a deputy, substitute or subordinate, as in vice president, vice-chancellor or viceroy. The etymology of this usage derives from the Latin prefix vice-, meaning "in the place of".)
Vice (character)
Vice is a stock character of the medieval morality plays. While the main character of these plays was representative of every human being (and usually named Mankind, Everyman, or some other generalizing of humanity at large), the other characters were representatives of (and usually named after) personified virtues or vices who sought to win control of man's soul. While the virtues in a morality play can be seen as messengers of God, the vices were viewed as messengers of the Devil.
Over time, the morality plays began to include many lesser vices on stage and one chief vice figure, a tempter above all the others, who was called simply the Vice. Originally, the Vice was a serious role, but over time his part became largely comical. Scholar F.P. Wilson notes, “Whatever else the Vice may be, he is always the chief comic character”; this comic portrayal is explained thus: "In theory there is no reason why vice should not be put upon the stage with the same seriousness and sobriety as virtue: in practice, however, dramatists, and many a preacher, knew that men and women will not listen for long to unrelieved gravity”. In his Declaration of Popish Impostures from 1603, Bishop Harsnet wrote that "It was a pretty part in the old church plays, when the nimble Vice would skip up nimbly like a Jacke-an-apes into the Devil's necke, and ride the devil a course, and belabour him with his wooden dagger, till he made him roar, whereat the people would laugh to see the Devil so Vice-haunted.”
Vice (song)
"Vice" is the fifth single released by English rock band Razorlight, taken from their debut album Up All Night. It followed "Golden Touch" into the UK Top 20. The lyrics feature the word "love" spelled out in letters, the outro repeating this several times. Near the end of the song, Johnny Borrell gave out his then mobile phone number, allowing fans to call or text him.
The B-side to one format of the single is a cover of Outkast's "Hey Ya!," recorded with the London Community Gospel Choir (who also appeared on Blur's hit "Tender").

Edit it out
by: ViCELights camera action, focus in on immediate attraction, Que sound then proceeded to distraction, spotlights on your are you ready.
Now you are the director how did we switch rolls I never did suspect her flipped the script and now I'm trying to eject her out of my mind.
When you were here with me I cant believe I couldn't see what was going wrong,
Now I cant let go I need you so,
The final scenes review,
Why cant it be me with you
Deleted scenes in my mind still play through,
The final scenes review,
Its been a long time due,
Its done your gone but still I'm seeing you
Play forward rewind either way I'm looking for something that I cat find,
Feel like I'm contracted to something that I never signed trapped in my own conclusion,
Now the interval is over like a mystery I should never'av tried to solve her now I know that I shouldn't have involved her in my life
When you were here with me I cant believe I couldn't see what was going wrong,
Now I cant let go I need you so,
The final scenes review,
Why cant it be me with you
Deleted scenes in my mind still play through,
The final scenes review,
Its been a long time due,
Its done your gone but still I'm seeing you
Mmmmm out of sight out of mind I'm someone that will never be, thought you were better than the rest turned out to be a pirate copy,
Always saw the best in you shoud'av seen he best in me
But if only I could just stop and record the memory
Of you believing in me becoming something I weren't stop ushering me and just letting it burn
I didn't wanna see the tables turn,
Now I...cant hold onto those
Memories.....guess I have to dispose
Its time....
Now all I've gotta do is
The final scenes review,
Why cant it be me with you
Deleted scenes in my mind still play through,
The final scenes review,
Its been a long time due,
Its done your gone but still I'm seeing you
I cant get you out of my head,
Why wont u get out of my mind
Oh oh
The final scene is now
So why cant I edit it out
Oh no
