The Snake (Unplugged) Lyrics

You keep lying through your teeth

So you can hide whats underneath

Your fork tongue so poisonous

You'd bring the devil to his knees

I know words can last forever

And truth comes out with time

So when you shed your skin we all will see

The snake that's deep inside

So say what you mean

Just come clean

Now no one's listening

You should know not to hide

From the light

I won't hold your hand no more

I've been a liar and a cheat

I've crushed hearts beneath my feet

So I know just what it's like

To lose control of everything

You'd like to think

That you've got everyone deceived

But when it all comes out you'll find

You've lost the ones you really need

So say what you mean

Just come clean

Now no one's listening

You should know not to hide

From the light

I won't hold your hand no more

Do you believe in what you said

Are you tangled up in your own web

You're all alone your world's breaking down

Your games have reached their end

Your teeth ain't sinking in

You're all alone and you've got nowhere to go

So say what you mean

Just come clean

Now no one's listening

You should know not to hide

From the light

I won't hold your hand no more

I'm sorry if it seems like I don't care

We've wasted so much of energy and we're not

getting anywhere

By the time we're through I hope that you

Can learn from your mistakes

Learn to face the truth and make

a change
