|
I've swallowed my quarry |
|
And now lie paralyzed |
|
With assimilation's pain |
|
And indulgence's misshapen form |
|
I am a snake |
|
And I will resume |
|
My contours |
|
Then I'll hunt again |
|
There really is no choice |
|
How do we survive |
|
I like to think I surprise myself |
|
But that's a tired joke |
|
I watch myself as I do my best |
|
No drama anymore |
|
When reason turns to riot gear |
|
There's no control, I lose myself again |
|
These maniacal rituals that got me going, but just |
|
How do you survive |
|
So sudden are my movements |
|
Not a drop of blood is spilled |
|
I'm quiet beneath the roaring sun |
|
I leave my signature scrawled softly in the sand |
|
The only trace of a dead obsession |
|
'Cuz I'm a snake |
|
And I will resume |
|
My contours |
|
Then I'll hunt again |
