She's a Serpent

I’ve seen your mind’s eye
And you are not dyin’
Our friendship is a bundle
Of wilting roses that continue to crumble

Dead roses are never reborn,
Just like hate almost never turns to love.
And My Love, this goes for us the same.

Staring into the face of your truth
I have my proof
To stay away from all we have created
Your heart is desolated

These friends don’t see your death
As they flock to your hopeful breath
I’ll put a bullet in your crown
And only then will they frown

Dead roses are never reborn
[Never reborn]
Just like hate almost never turns to love
[Your poisonous love]
And my queen, this goes for you the same.

I broke away from your leash
I’m so far away from your reach
[Oh so far away]
I’ll bring you down
I’ll put a bullet in your crown

[There will be a bullet in your crown
A fast, deadly, bullet breaking
All of your faking
There is no mistaking our roses are dead
And it’s your turn to fall down
Come to my level you serpent]

You are vile
[You are vile]
You are vile
[You are vile]
You are vile!
