King of Snakes

We were walkin' hand in hand
I'll lead you on at your command
The moon's half a smile
And collides with stars awhile

Time endlessly chews us up
Extracts our teeth and interrupts our three day sleep
Wolves dress like sheep

I was on the rocks and you were sand
Walking doesn't feel the same without your hand
I'm made of bone and always alone
You were in the dirt and I was grass
Hoping that we'd grow once the winter passed, but it never did
You became acid and you know I want it

Wrestle bears out of their caves
And cut all the shackles off the slaves
And walk away from modern day
Between the cracks of our earthquake
You were the cave, I was the snake that roamed your halls and waterfalls

First we'll go and grab a shovel
Then we'll go and dig a tunnel
End up on the other side
Of who knows where we're going
On the way home
You promised on the way home

First we'll go and grab a shovel
Then we'll go and dig a tunnel
End up on the other side
Of who knows where we're going
On the way home
You promised on the way home
You called me the king of snakes cos you know I want it

Because you focus on the negative you can never make it ok
My temper always changes the lengths I want to try and obey

You can go away now, I won't even notice that you're gone
I said you can go away now, I won't even notice that you're gone
