Leather skin, blackened eyes
And a forked tongue
Speaks to you in your sleep
In your mind you hear its voice
Like your own, its words seem so true
Unable to deny it
Your limbs move in motion
Swing knives through
(1st Chorus)
Face to face with it
Every word burns like fire
Bleeding when you come
To confront the serpent
Pain surges high
Try to stand, try to fight
You're hit before you know
You've lost the battle
And your price is salvation
Can you pay the final toll?
(Repeat 1st chorus)
Venom tastes like happiness
Puking frees me to confess
Showing my colors for what they are
My skin turning shades of green
Bruises underneath
Rise to see the sun as it dries
Day, it's your final
Day, it's my final way
Through the night know
That I'm nearing, courting, you
My voice flows like gold
Valued by kings and queens alike
A seductive blend of hissing and singing
Sends your soul alight
So why do you try
When it's so easy, not to
I enter into you and your world
Like a friend I'll comfort, bring hope
One day you'll try but it's too late
Once I'm there, I'm in for good
Clawing, digging, grinding
Bash your face to the floor
Seeing life slip away
And I'm at the door
(2nd chorus)
Hatred pain for the tire slain
Cities fall and the darkness reigns
Who's a Christ or Buddha save
When nothing lives no more
One taste of highs
One racist heart
One saving prayer for life
And the beating drum
Of your eyeless plight
One taste of highs
While our few cities burn
We'll set a trail tonight and rip this world apart
(Repeat 2nd chorus)
