Like a May scene we burn over ice
Capturing, admiring the sheen
And the fire in her eyes
Wanna take up all the scars in my face
Like I'm burning down
The everglade of afternoon
And children of every line
Here, away from here
I know you're afraid
To capture the dreams that we have
Inside of us
When the serpents are marching on
I dream about the years
When the snakes are gone from Eden
Every time I close my eyes
I'm gasping for air, I know
When the serpents are gone from Eden
My sonnets are breaking
And stars are running here
My savior has been broken from anywhere
Criminal light and the fire of hate
Sail on the heading of your eye
I know that we are breaking
I'm not alone
I know you're afraid
To capture the light that we feel
From here
When the serpents are marching on
I dream about the years
When the snakes are gone from Eden
Every time I close my eyes
I'm gasping for air, I know
When the serpents are gone from Eden
I know my place
All that becomes lost
Inside of us
And the flames are lost
We are gone
I know, I know
The flame is lost
The flame is lost, forever the flame
When the serpents are marching on
I dream about the years
When the snakes are gone from Eden
Every time I close my eyes
I'm gasping for air, I know
When the serpents are gone from Eden
