Your scarlet soaked and bold
|
and the sheep's eyes locked to mine, sink to my bones.
|
Though your lips still drip, intentions, they keep me wanting more...
|
It's rising against all the walls we built for falling.
|
All the walls we built just stand in vain to draw you near.
|
It's the wool to hide the wolves.
|
And under these toes from where we last spoke, Your words laid so firm.
|
But I did not shed that skin like You said.
|
When the mason neglects the mortar, looks become deceiving
|
and when the bricks start to fall,
|
I'll be the one crawling down this road so dark.
|
Vices like vipers
|
Speak in whispers.
|
My heel's the meat to sink their teeth,
|
Like the viper I kept when You said, "Let go!"
|
This is what it took for me to see.
|
WHEN I AM GOD this church is unsound.
|
Slithering in the shade of a sinking church,
|
Surprise is no excuse for the traps that you left in the wake of warning.
|
So this is the warning, You fall to learn.
|
And to the girls,
|
You're worth more than the cheap words.
|
You see your body as beauty, but your pulse is worth more.
|
Hear me, it's not what it seems, though the feeding tastes of honesty.
|
This is the warning, you're just a hit to coax my urgency.
|
Why do we keep what holds us? Why do I keep what holds me down?
|
Lose the weight of defeat. It's time to stand your ground!
|
Vices like vipers
|
Speak in whispers.
|
My heel's the meat to sink their teeth,
|
Like the viper
|
I kept when You said, "Let go!"
|
Since all the alibis of ignorance are void...
|
This, my lust, the pornos and the sluts.
|
Take, my lust, this world's Love.
|
Great Councilor, take what's left.
|
Great Councilor, take what's left of me
|

Vices Like Vipers
