please don't ruin this for me

have you heard a serpent speak?

would you lift a veil to take a peek?

hold a mirror up to me

mirror back my unbelief

please don't ruin this for me

i have everything i need

please don't ruin this for me

i have everything i need

yeah

build an alter

stoke the flame

speak half truths that sound arcane

all my dreams so deeply hidden

rise up to my throat unbidden

all the comforts i forsake

like afterlives and divine fate

forge your own way merrily

fill the world with new meaning

please don't ruin this for me

i have everything i need

please don't ruin this for me

i have everything i need

yeah
