Scarangella - Serpentine Lyrics

The understory is lively tonight
Blank faces shuffle through crowded streets
My mind is racing, I can't forget his eyes
My fletcher stirs nervously under my hand

It wants to sing to me
I want to hear it sing
It wants to sing to me
Let them hear its song

Countless voices crying out for
Release from this mortal coil
Their suffering is almost at an end

Always waking up to bleaker
Futures than the day before
It doesn't have to be this way

He took me in, dressed my wounds
You understand I had no choice
My body aches, I can't forget his eyes
Serpentine, and piercing to my soul

And then he sang to me
I want to hear him sing

Countless voices crying out for
Release from this mortal coil
Their suffering is almost at an end

Always waking up to bleaker
Futures than the day before
It doesn't have to be this way

Silence cuts like a knife
Shadows dance and play
As my vision blurs
Neurons pulse and fire
My mind is not my own
I am not my own
I am not

And then he sang to me
I want to hear him sing
Please sing again to me
Let them hear your song

Countless voices crying out for
Release from this mortal coil
Their suffering is almost at an end

Always waking up to bleaker
Futures than the day before
It doesn't have to be this way

As I give in to his control
Flashes of my other life
Stay my shaking hand as gorgon eyes

Memories come flooding back to
Show me who I left behind
I cannot let it end this way
