Serpents (Basement) Lyrics
It was a close call
Sitting in the back of the room
With a bowl I had thrown at you,
But you didn't know.
Close in on my black eye.
I feel safe at times.
Certain emblems
Tell me it's timeSerpents in my mind
Looking for your crimes
Everything changes
I don't want mine to this timeYou enjoy sucking on dreams
So I will fall asleep with someone other than you
I had a thought you would take me seriously
And listen onSerpents in my mind
I am searching for your crimes
Everything changes
In time
You'll stay frozen in time
Collagen girls,
Controlling minds.
You hold the mirror well
To everybody else
