Sky Serpents - Bornholm

It was a close call Sitting in the back of the room With a bowl I had thrown at you And you didn't know Looking on my black eye I feel safe at times Certain emblems Tell me it's time Serpents in my mind Looking for your crimes Everything changes I don't want mine This time You enjoy sucking on lies And I want to belong to someone other than you I had a thought you would take me Seriously and listen on Serpents in my mind I am searching for your crimes Everything changes In time I was lost in the world Better stay And you're looking for my attention Here we are and every time I'd say you better run Better run Serpents in my mind Looking for your Crimes When everything changes There's no more time Possibly my nights, days Walking on my street at night I feel a little safe, a little in fear It's time Lying and your crimes You've got a knife Well I've got a gun Serpents in my mind Looking for your Crimes Everything changes Looking for my Crimes Chasing this bad I was lost in the world You wanted me to run And I climbed instead Searching for the answers I will never find But that's okay I know what I'm doing this time Serpents in my mind Trying to find your crimes Everything changes in time

Open your eyes! In spite of these creations a venom settles in the blood With fangs that will not rest til they've engulfed Everything, the sky and humans all alike. Dispersing vile scripture as abundant as the night. This poison takes but a single drop to thrive. The vipers waltz in time to slay the conscience back to blind. Slowly digesting and conspiring with mortal threads. This evil's woven firm its lies into our heads. A single cry will silence all but a single pierce will bring to fall Despite all odds we must confront What our deepest fears have presented us. You've got the truth before you and yet your eyes are shut. How can you speak when the serpent's got your tongue? This clarity can't be denied but before us stands the initial face of phases. Our fears will flee, our strength will hide. Open your eyes. Open your eyes. The serpent goes by many names and wears many a disguise. Open your eyes or let this poison slowly seep and consume you whole. Don't let the serpent catch your tongue and drown your soul. (Open your eyes) This blindness is an ailment Incurable by any means But tearing the seams from the eyes to bow down To the King of all mankind. Behold untainted sight. The truth is inscribed in the veins under the eyes. Release from the clutch of the serpentine to behold untainted sight. You've got the truth before you and yet your eyes are shut. How can you speak when the serpent's got your tongue? Open your eyes.

Fear is spreading itself through the lies And carving its way like a knife (And now you're!) blinded by praise getting drawn to the gates Misguided to think you were saved, oh What if I say I'm not afraid? And you will take this to the grave with all the lies you rip away to justify yourself I try to hold my tongue but it's not easy There's only so much more that I can take (I can take) Infecting all our lives with what you're preaching (what you're preaching) What if I say that I'm not afraid? Will you spread your hatred? Hatred! Blame seeking our minds to destroy Secretly part of a ploy (for power!) So turn everyone 'til the damage is done This war secures your foundation, oh What if I say I'll never change? And you will pay for treachery No more emotion left inside, it's buried in your soul I try to hold my tongue but it's not easy There's only so much more that I can take (I can take) Infecting all our lives with what you're preaching (what you're preaching) What if I say that I'm not afraid? Will you spread your hatred? Hatred! Gone, there's no emotion inside of your soul With dead eyes, erase everything and hope to start again I try to hold my tongue but it's not easy There's only so much more that I can take (I can take) Infecting all our lives with what you're preaching (what you're preaching) What if I say that I'm not afraid? Will you spread your hatred? Hatred!

You heirs of sin, invite me in Crawl through my pale skin Bid welcome to my desire Come break me down, come choke me up Smother the human in me and set that wicked free Shaped of filth and shame, cursed by thy name With head held low, flows of pity and woe Pierce my hollow self, the vanity of a wretched one Satiate this sickening void, with profound looks of scorn Bite hard, bite deep, your bitter poison I keep The shroud of gloom falls upon me The rivers of blood stream from my devoted veins Behold and lo, the ruins of me Speak of me not! With your poisonous tongues Words will shatter in your books of rust Oh you ancient serpents of lies and lust! Unfold this rapture and that horror From these dark eyes of the abhorrer The heirs of sin, they dwell within The venom they sire, their burning fire Fear them not, their haunting shadow Dare to succumb, drag you below Tempt you not, their vicious charm No time for lament, but only harm!

Rhythmically moving Emotions are rising Quivering to music Trembling bodies in song Go unsteadily sliding Devious gliding So beautifully sailing and floating on Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Twistedly slipping Radiance soaring Winding maliciously creeping, flowing Righteous, moral, and just (righteous, moral, and just) Deceitful, the creature is crawling The guardians flying, the dance is breathing Who's leading? Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Who's leading, leading you? Everything you say, everything that you do Believe in what is true One must lead in the dance Who's leading you? Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Life's real when angels and serpents dance Who's leading, leading you? Everything you say, everything that you do Believe in what is true One must lead in the dance Who's leading you?
