Serpentine
Serpentine
See the dogs come running
Smelling blood now
To an open sore
On a parasite
Countless hearts have fallen
Hard to number
Damnation’s whore
Is looking for a victim tonight
With an angry soul
And a wicked design
Your will cannot endure
And your heart is torn away
Chorus:
I was caught up in the moment
We were alone and you seemed to harness the light
Even though I felt cold inside
When you told me it would be alright
I had given up control and
I didn’t focus hard enough to see the warning signs
Your heart is serpentine
Damn what I’m becoming
One of them now
Just an opened door
On an endless night
Dark desire burning
In my blood now
How can I be sure
I don’t know if I’ll be able to fight
With a tortured soul
And an honest design
My will cannot endure
As my heart is torn away
Chorus
Now that I’ve been torn apart
Will there be an end to this?
Will there finally be release?
Will I finally rest in peace?
I’m determined to believe
My prayers will be received
With an angry soul
And a wicked design
Your will cannot endure
And your heart is torn away
Chorus
The warning signs
Your heart is serpentine
Evil personified
Your heart is serpentine

Heartbreaking lyrics, SO FUCKNG AMAZING!!
possibly the best and deepest lyrics that I have heard since at least 10 years. I am 41 years and metal freak since 13 so .... Further to this, the metaphores are absolutely brilliant. Hope to see you in Europe soon, not in a festival but closed venue to experience this phenomenon. You guys rule.
when i first listened to this album,i was enthralled,but when i got to this song,i was like,what is David doing with his voice,is he breathing,he's breathing,right in my ear,Dan's solo is beautiful,Johns bass in between the chorus and the second verse is blowing me away,and Mike,oh my gosh,i love this song,i can't listen to it just once,or twice,or three,well,you get the picture,haha
this song didn't really stand out to me at first, which is odd, since my favorite animal is a snake. but after hearing it a few more times i wuz like, "OMGWTF? why didn't i realize this song's awsomeness sooner?"
that is about the best shit i´ve ever heard! +crucified and asylum...the animal course should be included too. The same goes for another way to die and... well THE WHOLE F*ING ALBUMM!!!!!!
im sooo incomplete without disturbed... thank you!
Cheers from Uruguay, a shitty little country that hasn´t been disturbed enough :P
THE BEST MOTHERFUCKING SONG EVER!
I can say I am pleased with the new album. I am a person that find flaws in everything, but not in Disturbed!
Come to Zagreb!
David I feel your pain Dude the same thing happened to me.
