| Call in a favour, I need to contain it
|
| And I’ll be the razor if you wanna play
|
| And I know it’s dangerous, well honey what can I say?
|
| 'Cause I’m just a prisoner to the golden snake
|
| Feel the frustration, push its way 'round my veins
|
| Tense and outrageous, like a hit of cocaine
|
| Try to embrace it, it’s the only way
|
| 'Cause I’m just a prisoner to the golden snake
|
| So I hold these chains walking
|
| I could just stay
|
| Wasting away
|
| I’ve been looking for a reason to draw the line
|
| I could just stay
|
| Wasting away
|
| Well this is my purpose, I wasn’t born in the flames
|
| I’m feeling impatient, I’m pretty sick of the games
|
| And I am a puppet without any strings
|
| I’m lost in the vortex with the golden snake
|
| I’ve been devoured, and soon I’ll be waste
|
| Soak up the poison, I had to give it a taste
|
| If you’ll lay the flowers along to my grave
|
| 'Cause I’m just a prisoner to the golden snake
|
| So I hold these chains
|
| And walk into the serpent’s cave
|
| So I hold these chains
|
| And walk
|
| I could just stay
|
| Wasting away
|
| I’ve been looking for a reason to draw the line
|
| I’ve been in pain, permanently
|
| Don’t trust the snake
|
| (Don't, don’t, don’t)
|
| I could just stay
|
| Wasting away
|
| I’ve been looking for a reason to draw the line
|
| I could just stay
|
| Wasting away
|
| Try to keep my head in between the lines
|
| Couldn’t look away from the serpent’s eyes
|
| Totally vacant and hypnotised
|
| Save me
|
| Try to keep my head in between the lines
|
| Couldn’t look away from the serpent’s eyes
|
| Totally vacant and hypnotised
|
| Save me |
