Lyrics Serpent's Kiss - Symphony X

Serpent's Kiss

Covenant of pure corruption
Sink my teeth deep into you
Solemn oath of sheer Destruction
Nightmare, through and through
In that hour — I’ll devour
Hope is swallowed up in Pain
Taste the venom — feel the power
Coursing through my veins
I’m corruption
I’m destruction, through and through
Trust in Me… for I will set you free
With a Serpent’s Kiss
With a Serpent’s Kiss
Be my Light and I won’t stray — make me beg;
Make me pray
Tell me when to laugh or cry — when to live and when to die
Forgotten and betrayed
Rotting and decayed
Left to wither — without a voice
Left to slither — without a choice
Crucifier — spitting Fire
Say your little empty prayers
This Empire — growing higher
…to this spite, I swear
Sharp tongue severs — like a razor
Swimming in a sea of Rage
Vindicators — masqueraders
All the World’s my Stage
I devour
I empower — God of Pain
Trust in me… for I will set you free
With a Serpent’s Kiss
How could it come to this?
With a Serpent’s Kiss
