Lyrics

One, two, three and

Snakes and butterflies I should have known your serpent eyes would lie
Rope me back in to die
You shed your skin but then came back the same again and tried it one more time
Sweet but dangerous I can't believe a word you say wrap yourself around my arm
Movin through my memories no one ever made me feel like you

Nectar and honey was the best I've ever tasted but you flew away again
I see you flyin still, moving across the ground and I wonder when you'll finally let me go

Your colored patterns are deceitful I can't stand to let you win
And waste the beauty within
I tried to keep you but I can't maintain what I don't understand that isn't part of the plan
Been hearing voices from a distance but they're still not making sense so you put up a fence
No ladder's high enough to climb the wall you've built around yourself

Up in the branches where you've gathered with the others
Flap your wings and it's still swirlin in my mind
Out in the desert now you're hiding waiting patiently to poison the next victim that you find
