Artist/Band: Cradle Of Filth
Lyrics for Song: The Snake-Eyed And The Venemous
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Cradle Of Filth



They see me there

Their eyes are everywhere

Sniffing at the linen for the dirt

I feel their burning stare

That hate will later flare

And writhe upon their women full of hurt



Lace magic ink with venom, critics

Milked from infant teeth

Though scathing blows are so arthritic

When they're set on slow repeat



They know I care

Smell storm clouds in the air

Hissing at the bit above my heart

But though I dare

The dyed black route of splitting hairs

I favour not to tempt the poisoned apple cart



I feel two needles rising

Snake eyes are hypnotising

I know they seethe, despising

All that we possess



I feel two needles rising

The truth is always blinding

Their lies, unappetising

Toxins to digest



They breed nightmares

Dark horses of despair

Taking twisted courses in the art

And were I there

To bet my bones on grave affairs

I'd have their guts for garters from the start



I feel two needles rising

Snake eyes are hypnotising

I know they seethe, despising

All that we possess



I feel two needles rising

The truth is always blinding

Their lies, unappetising

Toxins to digest



It's not without hate to crawl flat in the filth

As other less basilisks fly

And brothers are clasped to the breasts of a sylph

As their royal loves slither to die

So shedding dead skin, working true colours loose

Renewing the red in their eyes

They coil like sin within thinning excuse

Cold-blooded to sharpen the lies



Uncivil serpents, race deceivers

Disfigureheads varnished with fevers

Snake-house creepers in our dreams

Of Eden, flee before we mean

To throw the worms out with the waters

Rife with hated spawn

And set a sword to whirl and slaughter

All vipers at the gates of dawn
