Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I miss the warm embrace I felt First time you touched me Secure and safe in open arms I should have known you'd crush me [Verse 2] A snake you were when we met I loved you anyway Pulling out your poisoned fangs The venom never goes away [Verse 3] Serpent swims free in my blood Dragons sleeping in my veins Jackyl speaking with my tongue Roach egg laying in my brain [Bridge] Once stalked beneath your shadow Sleepwalking to the gallows I'm the sun that beats your brow in 'Til I finally threw the towel in [Verse 4] Never knowing if I'd wake up, in a whirlpool, got redundant My brain was just some driftwood in a cesspool, I became dead From a rockstar to a desk fool was my destiny, someone said Love's a tide pool, taste the water, life's abundant Taste me! [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo: Marty Friedman]
