Let the snake crawl around on your floor |
|
You're not afraid of its tongue |
|
Or its tiny heart |
|
It lays curled up on the corner |
|
Watching Craig and Jose |
|
Hisses quietly to itself |
|
Doesn't have a thing good to say |
|
Like the fire's final spark |
|
Like predictable behavior |
|
The last drop in the battery |
|
Food that lost its flavor |
|
Blood inside like ground below |
|
Just growing colder |
|
No freedom in cowardice |
|
Poison fangs give no power |
|
The only love you'll ever grow |
|
Is to look beyond the things you know |
|
The things you know |
|
To crawl out of its hole |
|
A hired car and a 747 |
|
Wants to swallow the world whole |
|
Including hell including heaven |
|
Tiny eyes that strain to see |
|
The point behind all this gift giving |
|
Well, snakes may come and snakes may go |
|
Jose and Craig--well, they're still living |
|
The only love you'll ever grow |
|
Is to look beyond the things you know |
|
The only love you'll ever grow |
|
Is to look beyond the things you know |
|
The things you know |
|
The things you know |
