Serpents (Basement) - Sharon Van Etten

It was a close call

Sitting in the back of the room

With a bowl I had thrown at you

And you didn't know

Looking on my black eye

I feel safe at times

Certain emblems

Tell me it's time

Serpents in my mind

Looking for your crimes

Everything changes

I don't want mine this time

You enjoy sucking on dreams

And I'll finally belong to someone other than you

I had a thought you would take me

Seriously and listen on

Serpents in my mind

I am searching for your crimes

Everything changes

In time

I was lost in the world

Better stay yet I was looking for my 'ttention

Here we are and everytime I'd say can you run better run

Serpents in my mind

Looking for your crimes

When everything changes

There's no more time

Possibly my nights days

Walking on my street at night

I feel a little safe a little in fear

It's time lying and your crimes

You've got a knife well I've got a gun and

Serpents in my mind

Looking for your crimes

Everything changes

Looking for my crimes

Changes this time
