Beer bottle lights, Upright gentlemen with silver linings Spinning records on thumping turntables The wretched melody of infidelity An ode to the root of all evil Staggered stupor, Dripping poison from the serpent's tongue Heated memories, tentative bites, Broken homes. Dreams swallowed by shattered spikes Heightened sugar rush, Frantic gestures, A reckless tango, Changing tides, A newfound gift to be held Soon to be torn apart A strand of hair, Crooked past reflections The forbidden fruit of artificial boundaries A tangled web of repetitive excuses Decisive nods Barren walls, Torn frames, Passive regrets, Tightened knots, A gust of wind, Fin.

Snakes' Den
Beer bottle lights, Upright gentlemen with silver linings Spinning records on thumping turntables The wretched melody of infidelity An ode to the root of all evil Staggered stupor, Dripping poison from the serpent's tongue Heated memories, tentative bites, Broken homes. Dreams swallowed by shattered spikes Heightened sugar rush, Frantic gestures, A reckless tango, Changing tides, A newfound gift to be held Soon to be torn apart A strand of hair, Crooked past reflections The forbidden fruit of artificial boundaries A tangled web of repetitive excuses Decisive nods Barren walls, Torn frames, Passive regrets, Tightened knots, A gust of wind, Fin.
