Snake in the Grass

Snake in the grass Wanted a song, now you got one All these years by your side Now we're all done So self-absorbed So you lie and you lie again Manipulate all your friends Until you're done with them Walk away Out of my life You're fucking dead to me Always had it your way, never compromised Treating someone as a means to an end Your intentions were never pure, no more lies Relying on others, you try to blend in Dodged a bullet Deep down, I felt you were crooked Kept ignoring my instinct (I knew it) You finally let your true colours shine on my birthday Oh, what a wonderful gift Bitch, you're dead to me Would you swear on your life? On your life Look me dead in the eye Dead in the eye Would you swear on your life? I guess we'll never know the truth Made me question my sanity Went to the other side and it changed me Came back a different man Found a new prey Covered your trail Your words are venomous Always tipping the scales The element of surprise Selective honesty Cut through the smoke and denial Love lost, throw away the key Made me question my sanity Went to the other side and it changed me Came back a different man I guess we'll never know the truth Snake in the grass Slithering around 'til you strike again Switching your circle of friends Each time you reach the edge You had your chance to end things right You had your chance to end things right Learned a valuable lesson I won't even put up a fight, no Always had it your way, never compromised Treating someone as a means to an end Your intentions were never pure, no more lies This is my final plea You're dead to me Look me dead in the eye Dead in the eye Would you swear on your life? On your life Look me dead in the eye Dead in the eye Would you swear on your life? I beg you, bless me with the truth 11:11, I beg you, bless me with the truth 11:11, nothing but wishful thinking 11:11, every piece of the puzzle Is finally in its right place A fall from grace

Purgatory, between a rock and a hard place Purgatory, set me free Entre le bien et le mal At war with myself Exhausted, in the middle of an existential crisis No way out; Claustrophobic I am at war with myself My head’s up in a smoke cloud Isolated, feeling jaded Nothing to say in my defence I am at war with myself Purgatory, set me free Between good and evil Purgatory, between a rock and a hard place Purgatory, set me free Entre le bien et le mal I’ve escaped the Sunken Place The fire burns beneath my feet I’m reaching up, need a saving grace Caught between good and evil Losing my soul One step forward and two steps back The fire burns beneath my feet No looking down or I’ll fade to black Caught between good and evil Losing my soul What doesn’t kill you What doesn’t kill you What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger Navigating through the Ups & Downs I curse the sky above, Ignore the God below Look for answers in the shadow Still searching for a higher purpose (feeling hopeless) They say the path to paradise begins in hell (begins in hell) PURGATORY What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger What doesn’t kill you What doesn’t kill you What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger
