lyrics

Everything is upside down.
The walls are off angle
How am I standing on my feet?
With my wires so tangled.
Black adder.
Make me numb.

Black adder.
Make me numb.
Blood splattered,
Bathed in venom.

I’ve been sleeping in a bed of snakes I think
Something’s wrong with me, something’s wrong with me
I’ve been dreaming about losing teeth & now
I can finally see my own hypocrisies
Done this so long, brains turned to sponge,
Full of holes, over-wrung
I absorb all the negativity
& it pulses through me like

Automatic waves of static shocks
For the sake of Wreaking havoc,
Not making my life any easier
Just a constant ringing in my ears

Cottonmouth snake bite
Blackadder humor
Everything I love results in a tumor
I’ve been dreaming about losing teeth & now
I can finally see my own hypocrisies

Black adder.
Make me numb.
Blood splattered,
Ignore the consequences, palm them off.
Bathed in venom.
Memory lost, no compassion, no remorse.

Riddled with this sickly feeling that I’ve been
Slipping down into what’s beneath me.
Beyond a shadow of doubt,
I’m in a hole & I can’t climb out.

I’ve been stripped of my confidence
Been draining something bottomless.

Black adder.
Make me numb.
Blood splattered,
Ignore the consequences, palm them off.
Bathed in venom.
Memory lost, no compassion, no remorse.

I’ve been sleeping in a bed of snakes I think
Something’s wrong with me,
I’ve been dreaming about losing teeth & now
I can finally see my own hypocrisies
I embrace the person that hides beneath
With judgment cast aside
I can rid myself of negative energy
& Take back control of my life

I’m taking control
I’m cleansing the soul,
I’m flipping the poles,
I’m doing everything I should have done years ago.
I’ve always known
That the antidote
Was words in my throat
I’m out of the hole,
I’m taking control
