The Snake and the Saint

Gonna ask you to guard this here tree for me
Gonna ask you to carry all of mankind's sin and iniquities
She's gonna smell of sin for eternity
And bleed
She'll bleed
Are you ready to slither on the grass
Cause' you'll always be attacked
With the weight of the world on your back
You'll shed your skin but you'll never be new again

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
This split tongue can barely scream your praise so glory hallelujah
This split tongue can barely speak your name so glory hallelujah
This split tongue can barely scream your praise so
This split tongue, this split tongue

Hold you up and dance beneath the stars
Make them immortal and adorn them with each scar
I'll ask a great man to part the sea
Could you prove that his word's coming from me
Tell me am I the Saint or The Snake
Am I the canvas or the paint
Am I the crown so closely intertwined
With the immortal or with the divine

Hallelujah
