Riding The Snake Lyrics - The Gathering - Testament

Caged and riding the snake 

Straight down from the night 

True love for the fix 

and she never been able 

one minute 

to kick back the feelings enticed 

and you know it's never the same 

Venomous poison constricting your life 

Life... enough of the taste 

Sweet demonic night 

Raised up on her legs 

Every time you encounter the demon 

Your future forever is lost 

While riding the snake 

who suffers the loss 

Is there no shame 

Is life so bad without you... 

So far away 

and I still can't fight you!!! 

Climb straight into the veins 

Ran into the cell 

Straight up to the snake 

and it never will ever be 

Hiding from futures 

of innocence lost 

Will we ever escape 

the clinch of the jaws 

Drowning in pools filled with lies 

Filled in with pain 

Watch how the serpent survives... 

Simmering hate!!! 

Caged and riding the snake 

Love loss for the fix 

bit down on the snake 

Fates sending her back 

No place to go 

She will never change her ways 

Spent to many nights 

and can not take 

raw emotions from others 

Drowning in pools filled with lies 

Condemned in pain 

Watch how the serpent survives... 

Simmering hate!!!
