I see the black snake of death.
As it suffocates me and steals my breath I see the word lies written across it’s neck.
Gulping coughing choking on regret, but the serpent tells me not to fret.
Twisting tying constricting my soul.
It won't let go.
Manipulation cold contemplation has led to this aggravation, and my God **** lack of hesitation.
Tears fall without grace, the snake and I now face to face.
Its hollow eyes take me in, drench me in unholy sin.
Gagged and rotten are the teeth of death.
It’s jaw unhinges and I see the tunnel leading me straight to hell.
I once was an angel but slowly I fell.
Crashing to the darkness below, I am forever here to dwell.

I see the black snake of death.
As it suffocates me and steals my breath I see the word lies written across it’s neck.
Gulping coughing choking on regret, but the serpent tells me not to fret.
Twisting tying constricting my soul.
It won't let go.
Manipulation cold contemplation has led to this aggravation, and my God **** lack of hesitation.
Tears fall without grace, the snake and I now face to face.
Its hollow eyes take me in, drench me in unholy sin.
Gagged and rotten are the teeth of death.
It’s jaw unhinges and I see the tunnel leading me straight to hell.
I once was an angel but slowly I fell.
Crashing to the darkness below, I am forever here to dwell.
