[Verse 1]

Comes way after midnight

Slinks around the alleys of your mind

Wakes you and you're breathless

Cannot figure out what's deep inside you

[Chorus]

A strike will come you'll least expect

Oh no

A snakebite coming from inside your mind

[Verse 2]

Wide eyed, left in wonder

In the dark the poison feeds your mind

Praying for an angel

A spirit in your heart you've left enshrined, oh

[Chorus]

There's no rescue there's no escape

Oh no

A snakebite coming from inside your mind

[Instrumental Break/Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

How much longer can you stand this

Anxiety, the guilt, the fear, the doubt

A coiling hiss of madness

At its will a tongue that lashes out, oh

[Chorus]

Your heart will pound out deep regrets

Oh no

A snakebite coming from inside your mind

[Outro]

A snakebite coming from inside

A snakebite coming from inside

A snakebite coming from inside

Your mind
