The serpent is listening
He's watching every move I make
I feel his fire
I try to run, but I am tied to fate
And I know I can't go on like this
Every single night and day
And if I should pray to you, today
Will I find strength in this old heart?
Angel heart
Must've forgotten some deadly sin
I can't recall
With every step I just trip and fall
And then I think I'll never roll the ball
I went through every day of my life
All of those years, every day, every hour
It's a catch-22, with a lime and a twist
And he's a one-eyed pessimist
Making my life a mess
'Don't want to bump into a bite so venomous
The serpent is listening
He's watching every move I make
He must've got a million souls
He won't stop 'till he's signed the human race
I've got an Angel Heart
