The Amazing Tale Of The Snake And The Lion

Vinícius Galant


You walked out the door without a note
Left your car keys in our bed
I'm trying to reach you on the phone
Hanging on a line for too long

Dancing along to that same old song
I see you're tired of what we've become
My words won't come out right
They're like dirt in my throat
I put up a fight but I can't fight you no more

Ruthless, ruthless
Breaking away from the plans that I made
Ruthless, ruthless
Maybe you're done but im not willing to change

You hold your head high like your crown is the sun
You run out of sight as you burn on your own
You bring in the night as you take out the light
I fade out of view like the sun was a lie

Ruthless, ruthless
Breaking away from the plans that I made
Ruthless, ruthless
Maybe you're done but I'm not turning away

I'm right where you left me if you could only see
Trapped underwater getting harder to breathe
I'm crying for help why can't you see this is me
Falling apart from what we used to be

You're running below me but I'm winning the ground
Your rattling sound will never make me look down
You're soft when you touch me till you're holding me hard
Got your heat on my skin and all your mud in my mouth

You made me a hostage in the heat of your skin
I say I want out, maybe you know what I mean
I rattlesnake shake to the song of you words
You dig my drained out mouth to where my river flows

Your tears are bittersweet they come to blacken me out
Drowning all on your own I'm holding on to the dawn

Ruthless, ruthless
Breaking away through the rocks and the waves
Ruthless, ruthless
You should have never gotten out anyway
