Chris Bathgate – Serpentine Lyrics 14 years ago
There is basically one main version of this song going around the web that is wrong. If you watch the live offical video on YouTube you can see his mouth form the words. Here's a much closer version of his lyrics:

Mile long stone and my day’s all serpentine (walking down some stone or concrete, winding path)
The taught tiredness in my chest rests sense of SARS (his chest is tight and tired making him feel like he's got pneumonia)
And one dull dawn where they hum that splits its length
Does my name sting your tongue? Now does it babe?

Now your thin frame has set my eyes to fray (he's looking around for a girl)
On our dim stretch of this street, how it aches
For every grey and sad and heart to coil
And our frail eyes and their watch to finally talk (he really wants to see/talk to her)

Now one brash phrase could crush this fragile day
As my thoughts swirl in some shrill sad cannonade
And one such spur that caused my throat to creak
The one dull dawn that I’m sentenced to repeat (a sad day he's sentenced to repeat in his mind or by repeating some mistake)
