The Snake-Eyed and Venomous

歌詞

They see me there Their eyes are everywhere Sniffing at the linen for the dirt I feel their burning stare That hate will later flare And writhe upon their women full of hurt Lace magic ink with venom, critics Milked from infant teeth Though scathing blows are so arthritic When they're set on slow repeat They know I care Smell storm clouds in the air Hissing at the bite above my heart But though I dare The dyed black route of splitting hairs I favor not to tempt the poisoned apple cart I feel two needles rising Snake eyes are hypnotizing I know they seethe, despising All that we possess I feel two needles rising The truth is always blinding Their lies, unappetizing Toxins to digest They breed nightmares Dark horses of despair Taking twisted courses in the art And were I there To bet my bones on grave affairs I'd have their guts for garters from the start I feel two needles rising Snake eyes are hypnotizing I know they seethe, despising All that we possess I feel two needles rising The truth is always blinding Their lies, unappetizing Toxins to digest It's not without hate to crawl flat in the filth As other less basilisks fly And brothers are clasped to the breasts of a sylph As their royal loves slither to die So shedding dead skin, working true colors lose Renewing the red in their eyes They coil like sin within thinning excuse Cold blooded, to sharpen the lies Uncivil serpents, race deceivers Disfigure heads varnished with fevers Snake house creepers in our dreams Of Eden, flee before we mean To throw the worms out with the waters Rife with hated spawn And set a sword to whirl and slaughter All vipers at the gates of dawn
