Never nourish a viper
I'm so young, and naive
I Love way too soon, I trust far too deep
And I lie, say I'm to keep
Poison your trust as you inject your love into me
I prefer you when you're high
But you know I hate the substance and the freak-outs in the night
Though I shed my skin away
A serpent I remain
Why are you trying when this
Snake will never change?
Tell the harlot who cries to the moon
That the sea will never dry her eyes
What she has is what I want
And all we need is time
Lascivious liars, I live a life so starved of hope
Time is not our ally, we are tied by it as it were a rope
Your kindness will betray him
I think he knows being used
Your venom lips I taste
But he's helpless to the feeling I induce
So prefer me when I'm high
Cus I'm too afraid to come down
Unmask what I am inside
It's like nothing you'd believe
I'm in love, yeah I'm in love
And you won't tell me who to be
Tell the young man who stares into the sea
That the moon will never set him free
What he has is what I want
And all he needs is me
He's young and naive
I just wish she would promise me that she's
Not just, another, ready to go down, you're wasted
Jaded, f**ing around
This is what I wanna do
This ain't all about you
Although you've been so very kind
I'm getting on just fine
I'm sorry baby
But I never
Loved you in that way
As we lay together
We will slowly fade to grey
I, always the snake
I'll never change
Though you try to save me
I, always the snake x 2
I'm not a bird with broken wings
Tied to the ground and forced to sing
You must accept the snake that you saw when you found me
I'm sorry honey
But I never
Loved you in that way
As we grow together
We will slowly fade to grey
I, always the snake
You'll never change
Though I tried to save you
I am the snake
I'll never change
Never nourish a viper
