"SERPENT’S KISS"                                           THE MISSION
----------------------------------------------------------------------

[Intro: , , , , ] x3

                                    
Foreign tongues in familiar places
                                     
Surrender the thrills to the very core
                                             
Forever young and blessed with nameless graces
                                
A love that kills and promises more

                     
Ash on the carpet and dust on the mirror
                      
Chasing shadows and the dreaming comes clearer
                    
Gasping for colour, this perfect heart

                             
Screaming howl and the children play
                            
Serpents kiss for the words you pray
                            
Whiskey and the devil and the witching hour
                             
Serpents kiss on that untouched flower

                     
Searching for a haven, it’s no favour
                    
The fingers that shine
                                               
Heart beats quicker as the veils start to fall
                                      
I’ll be craving, the pleasure’s all mine
                                         
Candles flicker as the devils dance on the wall

                         
Stroking the naked and the silence gets colder
                           
Stuck on the ceiling and the kissing gets bolder
                  
Biting my nails for fear of revenge

                                 
Serpents kiss and the children play
                                 
Serpents kiss for the words you pray
                                 
Serpents kiss and the witching hour
                                
Serpents kiss on that untouched flower

[interlude  , , ]

                     
Ash on the carpet and dust on the mirror
                      
Chasing shadows and the dreaming comes clearer
                    
Some kind of visitor and the neon street

                                 
Serpents kiss and the children play
                                 
Serpents kiss for the words you pray
                                 
Serpents kiss and the witching hour
                                
Serpents kiss on that untouched flower
