The Learn'd Astronomer – Snake Vs. Man lyrics
[Verse]
Extend forked tongue
Dirt on chest
Ground vibrations
Extend forked tongue
[Chorus]
Thrown into the dark
He feels no escape
Gathering himself
He feels it slide across his leg
[Verse]
Primal instinct
Warm blood beneath
Fangs sink in deep
Primal instinct
[Chorus]
Thrown into the dark
There is no escape
Wrestling with death
He cannot feel his legs
[Bridge]
The struggle begins
Fight to death cut off its head
Its venom, it drips
Slides down scales.
The eyes! The eyes!
Blind the man then eat him whole
Its scales, whole neck, fall closer to his teeth
Fangs compress, soft flesh
He can see no more
His pain! His pain!
Screaming with a final blow
He bites and bites
Rips away dense chunks of meat
Through scale and bone 'til nothing's left
He cracks his teeth
[Chorus]
Thrown into the dark
There was no escape
Peace by death has come
A final twitch runs through his legs
Living in the dark
Bringer of pain
Lifeless on the floor
To kill, never again
[Outro]
Never again
Never again
Extend forked tongue
Dirt on chest
Ground vibrations
Extend forked tongue
[Chorus]
Thrown into the dark
He feels no escape
Gathering himself
He feels it slide across his leg
[Verse]
Primal instinct
Warm blood beneath
Fangs sink in deep
Primal instinct
[Chorus]
Thrown into the dark
There is no escape
Wrestling with death
He cannot feel his legs
[Bridge]
The struggle begins
Fight to death cut off its head
Its venom, it drips
Slides down scales.
The eyes! The eyes!
Blind the man then eat him whole
Its scales, whole neck, fall closer to his teeth
Fangs compress, soft flesh
He can see no more
His pain! His pain!
Screaming with a final blow
He bites and bites
Rips away dense chunks of meat
Through scale and bone 'til nothing's left
He cracks his teeth
[Chorus]
Thrown into the dark
There was no escape
Peace by death has come
A final twitch runs through his legs
Living in the dark
Bringer of pain
Lifeless on the floor
To kill, never again
[Outro]
Never again
Never again
