Snake 03:20
They said you’re poisonous Cold blooded sorcerous Distract your prey Then you make your escape. Speaking with forked tongue No sense of back bone You’ll shed your skin As you outgrow the last. You are mistaken With pleasure taken From judging one That you can’t understand. That’s what I thought But my head had been turned Couldn’t see for the trees What was happening to me. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake You’ll steal my soul With your piercing blank gaze. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake Venom persists Running deep in your veins. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake I’m just a prize At the end of the day. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake No sense of shame As you get your own way. Completed my research From looking inwards Found myself With the facts of the case That’s when I knew They were speaking the truth All the things they could see That were hidden from me. Hoped for a clean break Release from heartache No going back; A strategic withdrawal. I failed to note That there’s no antidote Once the poison sets in Then the trauma begins. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake You’ll steal my soul With your piercing blank gaze. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake Venom persists Running deep in your veins. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake I’m just a prize At the end of the day. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake No sense of shame As you get your own way. Finding your prey where you can Heeding the heat of the sun Emerge from a hole in the ground Stealth on your side, make no sound. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake You’ll steal my soul With your piercing blank gaze. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake Venom persists Running deep in your veins. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake I’m just a prize At the end of the day. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake No sense of shame As you get your own way. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake You’ll steal my soul With your piercing blank gaze. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake Venom persists Running deep in your veins. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake I’m just a prize At the end of the day. Just a rattlesnake Just a rattlesnake No sense of shame As you get your own way.
