"Serpents Tongue" lyrics

"Serpents Tongue"

Fear is spreading itself through the lies
And carving its way like a knife
And now you're blinded by praise getting drawn to the gates
Misguided to think you were saved

But what if I say I'm not afraid
And you will take this to the grave
With all the lies you rip away
To justify yourself

I try to hold my tongue but it's not easy
There's only so much more that I can take
Infecting all our lives with what you're preaching
What if I say that I'm not afraid
Will you spread your hatred

Blame seeking our minds to destroy
Secretly part of a ploy for power
So turn everyone 'til the damage is done
This war secures your foundation

What if I say I'll never change
And you will pay for treachery
No more emotion left inside
It's buried in your soul

I try to hold my tongue but it's not easy
There's only so much more that I can take
Infecting all our lives with what you're preaching
What if I say that I'm not afraid
Will you spread your hatred

Gone there's no emotion inside of your soul
With dead eyes erase everything and hope to start again

I try to hold my tongue but it's not easy
There's only so much more that I can take
Infecting all our lives with what you're preaching
What if I say that I'm not afraid
Will you spread your hatred
