And The Snakes Start To Sing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've lost the plot again
Tell your friends to sharpen their teeth
There's a few quid to be made
And my soul's a sorry state
So come on down, you're empty lovers
Worms come out of the woodwork
And the snakes start to sing
Do you feel the chill
Clawing at the back of your neck?
I start to spill
Did you really think that you could fix me?
They'll sell your bones for another role
Well sharpen your teeth
Tell yourself that it's just business
Worms come out of the woodwork
Leeches crawl from out of the dirt
Rats come out of the holes they call home
I fall apart
And the snakes start to sing
Don't say I'm better off dead
'Cause heaven's full and hell won't have me
Won't you make some room in your bed?
Oh, well you could lock me up in your heart
And throw away the key
Won't you take me out of my head?
I'm just a would've been, could've been
Should've been, never was and never ever will be
Well, sharpen your teeth
Tell yourself that it's just business
Would've been, could've been
Should've been, never was, and never ever will be
Worms come out of the woodwork
And the snakes start to sing
Worms come out of the woodwork
Leeches crawl from out of the dirt
Rats come out of the holes they call home
I fall apart
And the snakes start to sing
If you can't soar with the eagles
Then don't fly with the flock
Are you still getting high?
Did you catch your own reflection
In the knife my mother held?
Or the hell in my father's eyes?
If you can't soar with the eagles
Then don't fly with the flock
Are you still getting by?
Was I your knight in shining armour?
The apple of your eye?
Or just a step to climb?
If you can't soar with the eagles
Then don't fly with the flock
Are you still getting high?
Did you catch your own reflection
In the knife my mother held?
Or the hell in my father's eyes?
If you can't soar with the eagles
Then don't fly with the flock
Are you still getting by?
Was I your knight in shining armour?
Or the apple of your eye?
Or just a step, a fucking step to climb?
