Foreign tongue in familiar places
Surrender that thrills to the very core
Forever young and blessed with nameless graces
A love that kills and promises more
Ash on the carpet and dust on the mirror
Chasing shadows and the dreaming comes clearer
Gasping for colour, this perfect heart
Scream and howl and the children play
Serpents kiss for the worshipped pray
Whiskey and the devil and the witching hour
Serpents kiss on that untouched flower
Searching for a haven, bestowing favour
The fingers that shine
Heart beats quicker as the veils start to fall
idol and craven the pleasure's all mine
Candles flicker and the devils dance on the wall
Stroking the naked and the silence gets colder
stars on the ceiling and the kissing gets bolder
Biting my nails for fear of revenge
Serpents kiss and the children play
Serpents kiss for the worshipped pray
Serpents kiss and the witching hour
Serpents kiss on that untouched flower
Ash on the carpet and dust on the mirror
Chasing shadows and the dreaming comes clearer
Some pious visitor enemy of sleep
Serpents kiss and the children play
Serpents kiss for the words you pray
Serpents kiss and the witching hour
Serpents kiss on that untouched flower
