[Verse 1]

See the dogs come running

Smelling blood now

To an open sore

On a parasite

Countless hearts have fallen

Hard to number

Damnation's whore

Is looking for a victim tonight

[Pre-Chorus]

With an angry soul

And a wicked design

Your will cannot endure

And your heart is torn away

[Chorus]

I was caught up in the moment

We were alone and you seemed to harness the light

Even though I felt cold inside

When you told me it would be all right

I had given up control and

I didn't focus hard enough

To see the warning signs

Your heart is serpentine

[Verse 2]

Damn what I'm becoming

One of them now

Just an opened door

On an endless night

Dark desire burning

In my blood now

How can I be sure?

I don't know if I'll be able to fight

[Pre-Chorus]

With a tortured soul

And an honest design

My will cannot endure

As my heart is torn away

[Chorus]

I was caught up in the moment

We were alone and you seemed to harness the light

Even though I felt cold inside

When you told me it would be all right

I had given up control and

I didn't focus hard enough

To see the warning signs

Your heart is serpentine

[Bridge]

Now that I've been torn apart

Will there be an end to this?

Will there finally be release?

Will I finally rest in peace?

I'm determined to believe

My prayers will be received

[Pre-Chorus]

With a tortured soul

And an honest design

My will cannot endure

As my heart is torn away

[Chorus]

I was caught up in the moment

We were alone and you seemed to harness the light

Even though I felt cold inside

When you told me it would be all right

I had given up control and

I didn't focus hard enough

To see the warning signs

Your heart is serpentine

[Outro]

The warning signs

Your heart is serpentine

Evil personified

Your heart is serpentine
