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!
