Lyrics The Serpent - Besomorph

The Serpent

Under the shadow where the roots collide
A serpent whispers
Truth untied
Its tongue so sharp
Its gaze so wide
It never swayed
It never lied

No venom dripped
No secrets to hide
The serpent spoke
The earth complied

Oh the serpent that never lied
It told the tales the world denied
With every word
The myths all died
Oh the serpent that never lied

The wind would howl
The rivers screamed
But still its voice cut through the dream
It spoke of hearts
Both cracked and clean
A prophet's curse
Or so it seemed

No forked deceit
No gilded guise
Just steady truth in endless ties

Oh the serpent that never lied
It told the tales the world denied
With every word
The myths all died

Oh the serpent that never lied
The serpent that never lied
Oh the serpent that never lied
The serpent that never lied

Oh the serpent that never lied
