What's coming through is alive

What's holding up is a mirror

What's singing songs is a snake, and he's

Looking to turn my piss to wine

They're both totally void of hate, and

Killing me just the same, the



Snake behind me hisses

What my damage could have been

My blood before me begs me

Open up my heart again



And I feel this coming over like a storm again, now

Considerately



Venomous voice, tempts me

Drains me, bleeds me

Leaves me cracked and empty

Drags me down like some sweet gravity



The snake behind me hisses

What my damage could have been

My blood before me begs me

Open up my heart again



And I feel this coming over like a storm again, now

And I feel this coming over like a storm again, now



I am too connected to you

To slip away, to fade away

Days away, I still feel you

Touching me, changing me

And considerately killing me

Considerately killing me

Considerately killing me

Considerately killing me



Without the skin, here

Beneath the storm

Under these tears, now

The walls came down



And as the snake is drowned

And as I look in his eyes

My fear begins to fade

Recalling all of the times

I could have cried then

I should have cried then



And as the walls come down

And as I look in your eyes

My fear begins to fade

Recalling all of the times

I have died, and will die

It's all right, I don't mind

I don't mind

I don't mind



I am too connected to you

Slip away, fade away

Days away, I still feel you

Touching me, changing me



And considerately killing me

Considerately killing me
