The Cobra Rising (Snake Eyes)

Looking deep into your eyes
I see the dead blind stare of a thousand eyes
Rattling in the sun like the serpent wild
Slither on the run just another mile
And you slither just for a dream
Can't wrap your head around
What can't be unseen
Rapidly uncoiled sinking fangs through an empty vain
Drunk on venom or the blood of a wasted slay

I, can't seem to wrap my head around
These visions of life cuts like a knife through solid ground
Hissing at prey gotta try to turn it all around

Drowning in sound that cannot be found
Rising through vibrations and resonance all around
Hissing at the light of the day on burning ground
Its the nature of the beast unleashed
So take a look through snake eyes

Stand tall and fall fast
It's the burden of the fury of the serpents wrath
So now to take flight or to cross the path
Matching tempers turning embers into molten ash
And sparks fly forever fast
Just like the action of the venom in a violent thrash
The beast recoils in the shelter of it's hidden past
While always knowing that it's dominance will never last

I, can't seem to wrap myself around
These visions of life cuts like a knife through solid ground
Hissing at prey gotta try to turn it all around

Drowning in sound that cannot be found
Rising through vibrations and resonance all around
Hissing at the light of the day on burning ground
Its the nature of the beast unleashed
So take a look through snake eyes
Can't give up or get the fuck away

I, can't seem to wrap my head around
These visions of sound go

Drowning in sound that cannot be found
Rising through vibrations and resonance all around
Hissing at the light of the day on burning ground
Its the nature of the beast unleashed
So take a look through snake eyes

Can't taste the venom
