Not The Skull lyrics

Chasing a truth Down a trail of deceit Are these just wounds Or marks of the beast Eyes so scarred From staring at the Sun Can’t see a thing But I know where to run The serpent is me But I'm not the skull Floating my love On a river of greed Take what you want Take it from me See through eyes Of prophets so blind Witness the rush Of brothers unkind The serpent is me But I'm not the skull Hiding in the meadows Creep across the land Serpent like a brother Reach like hidden hand Hiding in the meadows Creep across the land Slipping through your fingers Like the finest sand The holier the road The more you’ll never know Shallow is the hole Dig a little deeper The faster that we go The more the cancer grows Hearts will melt like snow Waiting for the water
