the serpent - the ashes of tomorrow lyrics

[verse 1]
try to fix me, after breaking my skin
and run your mouth till you turn everyone against me
keep me here, keep me chained to the wall, keep me
stuck in a fissure with scissors to cut my thoughts
give me solace in h-ll, then you solicit my property
say you want more, rip it off of me
i was prey and you were waiting to bite
my back is chained to the wall with a knife
why do i wait for the return of a snake?
why am i here? i have the means to escape
how come after bending so far you won’t break?
seven years, seven months, throw it down in the drain

[chorus]
give me your envy
i’ll drink the poison straight from the chalice
swallow my malice
right down the hatch like the snake you are

[verse 2]
always sick of giving in, human embodiment of ritalin
a cheap high to get me by for a little bit
a false sign, or a facade, or an ambition?
all i know is that the buzz is so addictive
so vindictive, so much anger, no description
living out a role inside your fiction
i wanna cut a hole in my heart and watch you crawl out your nest
i wanna sew it together and feel you bind to my neck
now constrict me
throw me into a cell and give me h-ll for a probable cause
self-contradicting
your own moral beliefs, sink your teeth into my vulnerable arm

[chorus]
give me your envy
i’ll drink the poison straight from the chalice
swallow my malice
right down the hatch like the snake you are

[verse 3]
forget it now that all the feeling’s taken over
i should’ve known what it brought when i cut you off
your silhouette i always see in my dreams
and now i can’t sleep from the suffering it brings
carved your face into the back of my head
knowing that you would never be the one to cut it off instead
i’ve got a narrow mind, you’ve got a shallow heart
you’re just a piece of the past, time came and ripped it apart

[chorus]
give me your envy
i’ll drink the poison straight from the chalice
swallow my malice
right down the hatch like the snake you are

[ending]
darling don’t go, you’re all i’ve ever known
darling don’t go
darling don’t go

- the ashes of tomorrow lyrics
