Snake

I remember back in the day
I remember back, back when you were great
I remember when we had fun
Remember when you were the one?
There was a meaning in what we did
And there was nothing to be hid
Oh dear friend how have we come to this
Is this what we had to miss?
Things people hide in their basements
Things people hide in their hearts
TV stays on to fall asleep to - cables all heat up
And there we lie cold and far apart
Until there's no more to left to say
Until the eyes see in the dark
And that's a dreadful way

And I wonder why
I wonder why
I wonder why yea
And I wonder why mmm yea

I never knew
I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you
I never knew
I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you oh

Why do we have to change?
Why do we kill the child inside?
Why do we fall apart?
Why is there more said than done?
Things we hide in our basements
Things we hide in our hearts
The loss is more or less a constant
We knew that from the start
Still I wonder why it's senseless
To keep one straight fuckin' line
Just look into the eyes of someone and know what lurks inside
Cos when I look in your eyes
The void and fear I see
You know it's kind of creepy
You know you're creepin' me out
Oh you know
Oh you know
Oh you know

I never knew
I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you
I never knew
I never knew
I never knew what kind of Snake were you oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
What kinda
What kind of Snake
What kind of Snake were you
