Serpents Lyrics

Intro:
Don't get too close
That place is haunted
Fear not the ghosts
Cause she sent them
running She sleeps
beneath the surface
Consorting with the
serpents She strikes
F#m C#m B A G#m F#m C#m(hold)
without a purpose
Verse 1:
A dark face in a
corridor Deceptively
beautiful She's
watching you She's
in everything you do
Her kiss it tastes
so sweet But left
me with a lethargy
I couldn't shake
I made a grave mistake
Chorus 1:
I gave her my heart
she didn't want it
Took it anyway and
put a dark spell
on it Since then I
haven't been the
same Needed a victim
and she got it Took
me in with her song
powerless to stop it
Some men don't dare
to speak her name
Post Chorus: C#m A x2
Verse 2:
She picked me up
from my decline
Healed my wounds
with love and wine
Dosed me up and
closed my eyes
A taste of poison
She gave me all
that I desired
Sung the songs
of angel choirs
Preached the words
of death and fire
and left me burning
Bridge:
She sleeps
beneath the
surface
Consorting
with the
serpents
She strikes
without
a purpose
Outro: C#m B A G#m F#m C#m C#m(hold)
