Snakes

My mind split in two
Filthy and cruel
The other side will moralize like censors do
And though they fight, they’re both inside
So which is more true?
That sounds like something I would do
Turn around and ask, «What just happened?»
That sounds like something I would do
Forever falling in that trap
Your weaknesses show
Much more than you know
And the truth always eludes
That sounds like something I would do
Thousands of snakes
Crawl up my legs
AND EVERY NIGHT
I HEAR A KNOCK UPON MY DOOR
As I lie and itch, I know that it’s
My sins they’re coming for
That sounds like something I would do
Doesn’t matter what you said to me
That sounds like something I would do
It’s all in the delievery
Just measure me by
How well I can lie
And I’ll shoot right through the roof
That sounds like something I would do
Please, can you free me from my vanity
I am a prisoner and I swallowed my own key
