The correct lyrics may be found on his website: http://www.chrisbathgate.org/lyrics/serpentine/ My lungs stone and my days all serpentine The tight tightness in my chest rest and subsides In one dull dawn with a hum that split its length Does my name sting your tongue now does it babe Your thin frame has set my eyes to fray On our dim stretch of this street, how it aches For every gray and sad hemmed heart to coil And our frail eyes and their whites to finally toll Now one brash phrase could crush this fragile day As my thoughts swirl in some shrill sad cannonade The one such spur that caused my throat to creak The one dull dawn I’ve sentenced to repeat |
