lyrics

One step closer and my feet slither south. I can barely stand upright, or hide this dagger in my mouth.

You must've been so pleased that you finally found me - there I was: under a carpet, avoiding the views of the prophet. All my friends call me legion, I'm a collection of lesions. Go on and take my hand. I'll make you a god where you stand.

One step closer and my feet slither south. I can barely stand upright, or hide this dagger in my mouth.

Look at you now: just a cadaver. Pieces of bones that don't matter. I could make you so much more. We could be the stuff of lore.
One step forward. Both feet in the grave. Two steps backward, into a den of snakes.

One step forward and my feet slither south. I can barely stand upright, or hide this dagger in my mouth.
