Michael Ward - Snakebite Lyrics

I'm bleeding from this big surprise
And all I know to do is stare
I'm watching as it slowly dries
And I feel almost too numb to care
All I'm hearing starts to drone
The air is full of crack and buzz
And this premonition fills my home
The way an angry insect does
Draw the poison from the wound
And give it up to circumstances
You know it can't be gone too soon
And sooner still improves your chances
So, draw the poison from the wound
Snakebite
Snakebite
Left alone it surely turns
To deep infection in my bones
But now deep inside me something burns
And my vital organs fill with stones
And soon I feel my vision narrow
Bile is filling up my heart
And my heart will pump it to the marrow
Where many blood diseases start
Draw the poison from the wound
And give it up to circumstances
You know it can't be gone too soon
And sooner still improves your chances
Draw the poison from the wound
Snakebite
Snakebite
Snakebite
So, I mind the rattlesnake and sword
Danger does deserve it's due
But how much fear can I afford
And get to where I'm going to
Like where I walk and what I say
Why I went and who I saw
When I listen how I play
And which will be against the law
So, draw the poison from the wound
And give it up to circumstances
You know it can't be gone too soon
And sooner still improves your chances
So, draw the poison from the wound
And give it up to circumstances
You know it can't be gone too soon
And sooner still improves your chances
Draw the poison from the wound
