Sand

Walk with me, my monster
But close those crusty eyes 
The sounds I make may be abrasive
But you'll be all right 
Turn off all your senses 
And pretend you're home 
Walk with me and you walk alone 
Yeah! 

At the sight of his scales
You start to shake
You can never trust a snake 
At the sight of his scales
You start to scream
You can't trust a fanged thing

Grain by grain, so hot I've lost it 
Echoes peck and gnaw at me 
Creep, I crawl 
Shake, I'm breaking 
Creep and crawl 
They're chasing me 
Serpents! 

And I feel so cold 
Like the world just might explode 
And if I open my mouth 
It will fill full of sand 
And I feel so cold 
Like the world just might explode 
And if I open my mouth 
It will fill full of sand 

At the sight of his scales
You start to shake
You can never trust a snake 
At the sight of his scales
You start to scream
You can't trust a fanged thing

It's safe to say I've finally lost it 
The well's gone dry and abandoned me 
Creep, I crawl, begging droplets 
Of anything to comfort me 
Thirsty 

Laying in a hot desert 
Bitten by a poisonous snake 
Soft venom floods my veins 
I have lost my heartbeat 
My poor pulse is quivering 
And I've lost control 
Descending to my ending 
A perilous black hole 

The rivers run dry and so has my veins 
I'm a filthy animal begging for change 
Nothing I do is going as planned 
Nothing's left of me but fucking sand
Nothing's left of me but fucking sand

The sun explodes, so slow 
I feel the flames and I see the snow 
All that's left of my mind is sea of sand 
The sun explodes, so slow 
I feel the flames and I see the snow 
All that's left of my mind is sea of sand 

And everybody's celebrating! 

I've lost my way 
Desperate for change 
Pursued by snakes 
Bearing my name 

I've lost my way 
My skin's dry and baked 
Fearing I'll fade 
I'm the snake 

I walk with my monster
He beats me down 
Bestial and savage thoughts
His arms are long 
Can't get up, can't get up
Nothing's as planned 
Nothing's left of me but fucking sand!
