Marking the Heart of a Serpent Lyrics


Hear my tongue, my heaving lungs
Expelling notes, open throat
Sing your secrets, I'll be your healer
Writhe that body to the ceiling
Read my lips, I speak of bliss
Spider's threads pour from my head
Uncoil your spiral, slowly unravel for me
For me, for me
For me
The animal that was doomed to crawl
Now the gods are in your jaws
Faces looming behind the fangs
A gateway to more wicked landsSuspended in air, a ladder, a spire
Trembling with a bad desire
Desperate to pierce, the hungry creature
Hissing devil speakerEven the most subtle of beasts
Can be coaxed into a nervous sleep
To teach of fervour, to be a king

To be the master of a terrible thing
So hold my gaze, I'll watch you climb
Taming the fiend that wants to bite
With a fluid of fire, spirit and air
I am the magnetizer
