Primal Rock Rebellion - Snake Ladders lyrics

I don't need your salt rubbed in my wounds I won't try and tell you what you sould be or do You dwell in your own tree and Iìll leave you that way Now walk through the jungle of mystery "Who goes there?" you cried out to the night A snake appeared ahead with demonic eyes, he said "Hey come follow me, I'll show you the way" You said "OK, I'll do anything you say" There ain't no love in the air you breathe There ain't no fire in the hearts you leave Try to reminisce of how things used to be Before you climb so high on that darkened tree The snake slithered on through the jungle You followed, but tightly in your palm, holding a rock Waiting for your moment, yea At last you reached the river It was a beautiful waterfall, but nowhere to cross He turned and said "we must wait here for the boatman" As he turned back, you cracked him over the head And tossed him into the water He was no use to you anymore There ain't no love in the air you breathe There ain't no fire in the hearts you leave Try to reminisce of how things used to be Before you climb so high on that darkened tree [x2] At last the boatman came Over at him you waved shouting "Please take me to the other side" Boatman looked up and said "OK come take a ride" You then asked "Have you any food?" And then he smiled saying "Yea, I do, why don't you come stay with me for a while" (If you need a place to crash a while) Nights and days went by, and closer you became Until you found a map of that goldmine Off you ran into the midst of night 'til you come to a crooked old bridge You weren't to know it was far too weak As you fell into the rapids below Then trying to swim up and over to the other side Eventually, you pulled yourself out Then staring back at a reflection into your own eyes Screaming and wailing in the night There ain't no love in the air you breathe There ain't no fire in the hearts you leave Try to reminisce of how things used to be Before you climb so high on that darkened tree [x3] There ain't no love There ain't no love There ain't no fire There ain't no fire Try to reminisce of how things used to be Before you climb so high on that darkened tree
