See the dogs come running
Smelling blood now
To an open sore
On the parasite
Countless hearts have fallen
Hard to number
Damnation's whore
Is looking for a victim tonight
With an angry soul
And a wicked design
Your will cannot endure
And your heart is torn away
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light
Even though I felt cold inside
When you told me it would be alright
I had given up control and
I didn't focus hard enough to see the warning signs
Your heart is serpentine
Damn what I'm becoming
One of them now
Just an opened door
On the endless night
Dark desire burning
In my blood now
How can I be sure
I don't know if I'll be able to fight
With a tortured soul
And an honest design
My will cannot endure
As my heart is torn away
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light
Even though I felt cold inside
When you told me it would be alright,
I had given up control and,
I didn't focus hard enough to see the warning signs,
Your heart is serpentine,
Now that I've been torn apart,
Will there be an end to this?
Will there finally be release?
Will I finally rest in peace?
I'm determined to believe,
My prayers will be received,
With a tortured soul,
And an honest design,
My will cannot endure,
As my heart is torn away,
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment,
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light,
Even though I felt cold inside,
When you told me it would be alright,
I had given up control and,
I didn't focus hard enough to see the warning signs,
Your heart is serpentine,
The warning signs,
Your heart is serpentine,
Evil personified,
Your heart is serpentine.
This song to me is a rebound song, when a relationship ends, and another begins, that person preys on the weaker on, until nothing is left.
