You spin around me like a child and sing your flat praise
Piling all your trauma to the statue that you raise
Avert your eyes from false gods and prophets of prey
Whatever your saviour be
(It isn't me)
Run away, run away until morning
Get away into the night
(The hour is late for a bloodless way out!)
Find a way out of the shackles of the poisoned web I've woven
(I am the venom in your head!)
The wounds you cover up so well still quietly bleed
Leading you with open arms for predators to feed
Weak enough to follow anyone who's strong
(Just frail enough!)
(Just alone enough!)
(Just dead enough to suffer!)
(Just to belong!)
Run away, run away until morning
Get away onto the night
(The hour is late for a bloodless way out!)
Find a way out of the shackles of the poisoned web I've woven
Oh I know I am
I'm the venom running in your veins
Oh I know I am
I'm the venom in your head
I'm the venom in your head
C.O.E
C.O.E
Indulgent, isolation improve and adapt my aberration
Suck it up, drink it up
Take it all down
Scorched earth, soul burial ground
C.O.E
Indulgent, isolation improve and adapt my aberration
Suck it up, drink it up
Take it all down
Run away, run away until morning
Get away into the night
(The hour is late for a bloodless way out!)
Find a way out of the shackles of the poisoned web I've woven
Oh I know I am
The venom running in your veins
Oh I know I am
I am the venom in your head
C.O.E
C.O.E
C.O.E
C.O.E
The venom in your head
I am the venom in your head
