Other States - Serpentine Lyrics

Well i ain't ever asked for much
Not so much of that came to me
No vapid interaction
No bite from the apple tree

(But Lucy)
You approached with a slither
And my mind ran astray
My plans went to wither
Now i'm beholden to your gaze

In the cold you were my fire
In the night you were my dream
Fill my cup with pure desire
Lucy, precious, serpentine.

I came here with a purpose
No time for sick reverie
And this light i'll carry onwards
Out from under this family tree

You dropped on my shoulder
My eyes went to glaze
You started with a whisper
I knew it was my judgement day

In the cold you were my fire
In the night you were my dream
Fill my cup with pure desire
Lucy, precious, serpentine

I was so tired from the journey
I did not stand a chance
You started with a question
Before it ended with a trance

In the cold you were my fire
In the night you were my dream
Fill my cup with pure desire
Lucy, precious, serpentine

In the cold you were my fire
In the night you were my dream
Fill my cup with pure desire
Lucy, precious, serpentine
