Snake Bit Lyrics by Charming Disaster

Cautionary Tales

2017

[Verse 1: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
Snake bit, you went down into the dark black pit
In my elbow's inner hollow, snake bit
Without you life was just a black pit
You should have never tried to follow

I set out with my telecaster
To charm the bouncer at the pearly gates
I was trying to avert disaster
It was already too late

When they called me in to grant your favor
I was starting to accept my fate
You stood there like some kind of savior
It should have been a piece of cake

[Chorus: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
Snake bit
Snake bit
Snake bit

[Verse 2: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
You wept, for a chance to bring me back from death
I never learned to let go, I wept
You sang into that black pit of death
And hell, it opened like a red rose

I heard my favorite song
Blood flowed from my fingers
To make a path to guide you on
But you should have let me linger

Since you left me, I’ve been haunted
Yeah I shuffled off that mortal chain
You never asked me what I really wanted
You left me in a world of pain

[Chorus: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
Snake bit
Snake bit
Snake bit

[Bridge: Jeff Morris, Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
Gods take pity on me
Let me strike a devil’s bargain
I'll do anything to
Bring her back outside your garden
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all, I’d give it up
I’d give it all

[Verse 3: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
Snake bit, you went down into that dark black pit
And I brought you out behind me
Came to rescue though I never asked it
Why didn't you remind me?

There was only one condition
No looking back to see your face
You could have been an apparition
You had to take it all on faith

Did you think you could just waltz in here
And carry me away?
I made you turn back at the final moment
You were calling out my name

[Verse 4: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker, Both]
Face it, you were left alone when death hit
I sang all night over your body, wasted
What's a song if no one's there who hears it?
I needed you beside me

[Chorus: Jeff Morris & Ellia Bisker]
Snake bit
Snake bit
Snake bit
Snake bit
