"Slither" lyrics
"Slither"
Slither slowly until you are close to me
Soon may your colors be shown
And I'll fall by your fangs if they ever let go of me
I suppose I should have known
But it's no fault of yours, no it's only a curse
Beckoning on and on
And though you'd never pull any triggers
You were left holding the gun
Well some beggars are born from good fortune
And free is a relative term
Well I've taken, yes I've taken
Much from the lesson never learned
But it's no fault of mine
I just stay in the lines
I color in all as I see
It all comes to life as it comes into light
And I color the end of me
So bring down the knife
Deep in me
Now see it out
So bring down the knife
Deep in me
Now see it out
Just slither away
The same as you came
Back to your hole to hide

On the bridge's side that faces towards the jail
Setting out to join a demographic
He hoists his first leg up over the rail
A phone call's made,...

Oh, few have seen it, but everybody talks
Spirits follow everywhere I go
Oh they sing all day and they haunt me in the night
Oh they sing all day and they haunt me...
Henry Jamison - "The Last Time I Saw Adrianne" Oh the last time I saw Adrianne, she sang about the seasons
And what I can't seem to do, she can
The Eternal's moving in her hands
And I knew her singing signaled Spring
And whirring my heart pounds...
The SteelDrivers - "Can You Run" There's smoke down by the river
Hear the cannon and the drums
I've got one thing to ask you, honey
Can you run?
You know I hate to ask so late
But the moment's finally come
And there won't be time...
