(album: The Bedlam In Goliath)

I´ll be there waiting with a hook in your neck
Is the contact you´ve made deficient?
And your hand will break if you touch this fence
Please them ´til they´re blind with cleft lens

What have you brought for my appetite?
What have you brought for my appetite?

I´ll never perish with the albino horns of a thousand young born
Will you drink from the depths of my sea?
And your hand will break if you touch this fence
Please them ´til they´re blind with cleft lens

What have you brought for my appetite?
What have you brought for my appetite?

I might not make it back again
The vervain is on the rise
Maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe
They´ve got to open wide
Got to open wide
Might of a serpent swallowing tail
Cycle recycled and I´m next to nothing

Help me come alive
