Snake Lyrics by Cyanna Mercury

Archetypes

2016

[Verse 1]
I remember back in the day
I remember back, back when you were great
I remember when we had fun
Remember when you were the one?
There was a meaning in what we did
And there was nothing to be hid
Oh dear friend how have we come to this
Is this what we had to miss?
Things people hide in their basements
Things people hide in their hearts
TV stays on to fall asleep to cables all heat up
And there we lie cold and far apart
Until there's no more to left to say
Until the eyes see in the dark
And that’s a dreadful way
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wonder why
I wonder why
I wonder why
Yeah, and I wonder why
Yeah, eh
[Chorus]
I never knew, I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you
I never knew, I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you, oh
[Verse 2]
Why do we have to change?
Why do we kill the child inside?
Why do we fall apart?
Why is there more said than done?
Things we hide in our basements
Things we hide in our heart
The loss is more or less a constant
We knew that from the start
But still I wonder why it's senseless
To keep one straight fuckin' line
Just look into the eyes of someone and know what lurks inside
'Cause when I look into your eyes
The void and fear I see
You know it’s kind of creepy
You know you’re creepin' me out
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you know
Oh, you know
Oh, you know
[Chorus]
I never knew, I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you
I never knew, I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you, oh
[Outro]
What kind of
What kind of Snake
What kind of Snake were you
