"Snake Bit" lyrics

"Snake Bit"

Call me Adam
If it's all the same, you know I'm Abel
I've been raising Cain just like Peter
I could change my name. It's all in vain
Now call me David
I've been singing songs just like Saul
Been blinded all along
The suits and all the ties that bind the dim lit rooms and bottom lines are wrong

If I call you Jacob
Would you speak the truth or just like Judas
Is it not in you?
Do now what you came here for
I always knew you were the thorn in my side

Go on and fill me with your venom and your lies
You can't kill me or even look me in the eye
I ain't hard to find, I'm done running with your kind, and I don't hide
I never saw the snake there in plain sight
Damn sure felt the bite

I've been a doubter
I know I'm made for this, and I've seen evil
They greet me with a kiss
Leave you bleeding ask you why they hang you out to dry with no goodbye

So I'm moving on
It's time to shake some dust, I'm tired of laying
Where moth and dust corrupt
They get you down in every town until the man himself comes back around

Go on and fill me with your venom and your lies you can't kill me
Or even look me in the eye
I ain't hard to find, I''m done running with your kind and I don't hide

The devil is a master of disguise
Never saw the snake there in plain sight
I damn sure felt the bite

Go on and fill me with your venom in your lies
You can't kill me or even look me in the eye
I ain't hard to find, I'm done running with your kind, and I don't hide

The devil is a master of disguise
We both know you can't stand a fight
Never saw the snake there in plain sight
I damn sure felt the bite
Damn sure felt the bite
