Serpents

I was in the second grade when you pushed me out Third story window to the bushes down below Breathing in the cold As I tumbled through the vines' thorns smiling at my throat I, I saw the devil in you that day Looking down at me with that face Smiling like you would have hid my body in the basement Body in the Basement But you got something that the world's been running from For way too long and it's a sick twist A nervous little twitch Dragging the razors across my wrists And you got something that the world's been trying to hide You're cyanide 'Cause the only thing you told me was They'd never find my body in the basement Body in the basement, no Every time I think about you know I go crazy People ask me about you I don't know what to say Cause I don't know who you are I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this Keep on asking about you They don't know what to tell me They don't know who you are Every time I think about you know I go crazy People ask me about you I don't know what to say Cause I don't know who you are I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this Keep on asking about you They don't know what to tell me They don't know who you are I was listening through the wall when you met your monsters Heard'em break the closet door and take you away Hoping you would change like the color of the moonlight Bouncing off the rain I, I heard the devil in you that day Watch the world around you cascade Laughing like you would have fed your family to the serpent You got something that the world won't talk about They walk around it It's deep sleep, crawling in the street Pushing the bayonet into me You got something that the world keeps trapped inside You aconite Cause I watched you turn around Go and try to feed you family to the serpent Family to the serpent whole These words won't break on you I know I've done my best to help so many times before These words won't break on you I know I've done my best to help Every time I think about you know I go crazy People ask me about you I don't know what to say Cause I don't know who you are I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this Keep on asking about you They don't know what to tell me They don't know who you are Every time I think about you know I go crazy People ask me about you I don't know what to say Cause I don't know who you are I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this Keep on asking about you They don't know what to tell me They don't know who you are --- Serpents - Grieves
