You never said a word when you took the form of a snake
You never said a word when I bit and took the bait
We can’t explain everything that happened when you took a drink from the lake
So we’ll sit and wait until everything comes back and decides our fate
You’re drowning in your oxygen tank
The only thing that makes you feel half great
I saw you through the vineyard
Softly squeezing your scales
Around the throat of our lamb
We all thought we were you
But that’s not who I am
You never said a word when you let me take a bite
Of the apple that you swore was ripe
And the scars on my hands remind me where I am
My head just above the quickest of sand
The ones you love will pull you down
And hold you there until you drown
I saw you through the vineyard
Softly squeezing your scales
Around the throat of our lamb
We all thought we were you
But that’s not who I am
We’re all selling us sort with the lesser of words
Our collar shirts buttoned to the top
But we’re not half the worth of our dress clothes
Without them we’re just alone
I saw you through the vineyard
Softly squeezing your scales
Around the throat of our lamb
And I thought I was him
But we all commit sin
