james spaite - snakes lyrics

[verse 1]
there’s serpent
coiled in the lower chambers of my mind
and it always seems keen to strike
expose my bare bones and all
it kept me safe
a few hundred thousands amore
hiding in deep, dark holes and behind closed doors
all alone, short breath, and blurred sight

[chorus]
will my fears have the last say?
will the tension in my eye bones be washed away?
can laugh undo the riddles that time has made?
or will love undo the rhythms that time has made?

[verse 2]
there’s serpent
time carved its mark all across our minds
plant a seed in the trenches left behind
leaves our judgement paralyzed

[chorus]
will my fears have the last say?
will the tension in my eye bones be washed away?
can laugh undo the riddles that time has made?
or will love undo the rhythms that time has made?

[bridge]
i’m just a [?] of fragile words
where can i turn to help me understand
that love and peace and my own brutality
and no one seems to have it figured out yet
but the things i’ve seen, they won’t let me turn back
oh, the things i’ve seen
oh, the things i’ve seen
oh, the things i’ve seen
the things i’ve seen
that my fears are not lasting
and the violence in my bones has begun to dissipate
my eyes have yet to see how love liberates
so far as i can tell
it has been, is now, will be love that sings

[outro]
love
love
love
love
