Serpent from Alkymist by Alkymist

Serpent


I lost myself to the sea
And asked it, what do you have for me
I wondered, what I could find
Would it treat me kind
Or coddle me with lies
And make me wish I could die

Can you drown my silent scream
And recover all my dreams
Can I dive into your stream
And become my dreams

Dancing beams led the way
Come with me and we will play
Deep below the waiting waves

Can you drown my silent scream
And recover all my dreams
Can I dive into your stream
And become my deepest dreams

A love insane, adore and smear
Wet, blue eyes, salty tears
Slip away and just disappear

The serpent's tongue
Will drag you down with sirens song
A sunken nest
An oceanchild searching for rest
A thousand waves
Out of reach, the silent graves

Then everything was clear
But left a hollow fear
Deep inside of me
I could feel the cold defying sea

Darkness turned to light
A solid shore caught my sight
Why was I so blind
All the beautiful things I left behind
