Lyrics

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
Plug in 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 dreams
And I want to belong to someone other than you
I am gone, you'd take me someday
And listen darling
Serpents in my mind
I am searching for your crimes
Everything changes
In time
I was lost in a mindless state
Now I'm walking far, my tension
You would hurt me then there's times I'd say
Better run, better run
Serpents in my mind
Looking for your crimes
When everything changes
There's no more time
Perfectly mine
Night, days
Walking out, I'm free at night
I feel a little safe, a little, little fear
And stumble through my many 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 pride
Tasting despair
