[Verse 1]

What's coming through is alive

What's holding up is a mirror

But what's singing songs is a snake, it is

Lookin' to turn my piss to wine

They're both totally void of hate, and

Killin' me just the same


[Refrain]

The snake behind me hisses

What my damage could have been

My blood before me begs me

Open up my heart again

And I feel this coming over like a storm again

Considerately


[Verse 2]

Venomous voice, tempts me

And drains me, bleeds me

Leaves me cracked and empty

Drags me down like some sweet gravity


[Refrain]

The snake behind me hisses

What my damage could have been

My blood before me begs me

Open up my heart again

And I feel this coming over like a storm again, now

And I feel this coming over like a storm again, now


[Chorus]

I am too connected to you

To slip away, to fade away

Days away, I still feel you

Touching me, changing me


[Post-Chorus]

And considerately killing me

Considerately killing me

Considerately killing me

Considerately killing me


[Verse 3]

Without the skin, here

Beneath the storm

Under these tears, now

The walls came down

Once the snake is drowned

And as I look in his eyes

My fear begins to fade

Recalling all of the times

I could have cried then

I should have cried then

As the walls come down and

As I look in your eyes

My fear begins to fade

Recalling all of the times

I have died

And will die

It's alright


[Pre-Chorus]

I don't mind

I don't mind

I don't mind


[Chorus]

I am too connected to you

To slip away and fade away

Days away, I still feel you

Touching me, changing me


[Post-Chorus]

And considerately killing me

Considerately killing me, yeah

Considerately killing me
