Greyhaven - Of Snakes And Swans Lyrics

Greyhaven Lyrics

"Of Snakes And Swans"

Punishing lights again
And I can't see anything

Wax stranger
They give me eyes that are straight from the mud
And they look familiar
I've been blind since the day I was born

Lost worship
Satin death
Waiting for us to spar
Remember, remember there are snakes growing old in the yard

Torment my skin
Midnight sets in
Unholy dances
Stay in love while Heaven's burning before your eyes

It knocks the wind right out of me
"What? Watch what you're saying
Keep on dancing with your silk shoes on"
Defiled, we're trained to offer our surrender
Wild surrender

Black swan tarred and feathered in the back
Now I'm left with all we ever did
Shade splits in 27 lines on the act
Cold blood don't move (They don't ever move)
Under fading lights, commemoration
I need something that brings me adoration
Sacrificial lives and dedication
I feel the serpents in my skin

Catch them all
Cut the neck
Bite the rope

Midnight sets in
Unholy dances
Stay in love while Heaven's burning before your eyes

Midnight sets in
Exhausted frozen pain
The frost, it starts at the neck
Midnight sets in
Still yearning to be broken
Those eyes are burning black
I am of snakes and swans
I put the pieces back
