Serpent Skin Songtext
von Down and Out

Serpent skin cloaked in broken wings
The pity that you can′t resist
I don't know how we go on like this
Cut the head off

Cultivate the sickness that you
Love to say you hate
Lashing out at everyone then
Hide and isolate
Staying in the cycle while you
Pass off all the blame
So unstable, are we able to
Get past all this shame

Caustic, traumatised
Burning out my eyes
Blinded in the night


Serpent skin cloaked in broken wings
The pity that you can′t resist
I don't know how we go on like this
Serpent skin shed the pain within
The vulture doesn't dance or sing
I don′t know how we go on like this

The warrant′s out and it's dead or alive
You know I can′t relate to your mess of a life
Running out and it's never enough
Cause time ain′t on your side and I'm calling your bluff

You′re caustic, traumatised
Burning out my eyes
Blinded in the night
(stab me in the back then wonder why it's eye for an eye)
Velvet lullabies
Echo through your lies
Built a throne of spite

Serpent skin cloaked in broken wings
The pity that you can't resist
I don′t know how we go on like this
Serpent skin shed the pain within
The vulture doesn′t dance or sing
I don't know how we go on like this


Cut the head off
Serpent skin cloaked in broken wings
The pity that you can′t resist
I don't know how we go on like this
Serpent skin shed the pain within
The vulture doesn′t dance or sing
I don't know how we go on like this
How we go on like this (how we go on like. How we go on like)
Cause I don′t know how we go on like this
