serpent-in-claw

breathing

making your way through the opening

corduroy princes and pretty things

quietly turning away

leaning

into the arms of your city life

glorious stars in a shitty sky

glimmer in perfect decay

don't you know you are the only one

serpent-in-claw

don't you know you are the coolest kid

serpent-in-claw

and i won't let them get you down

everyone knows

where everyone goes

where everyone knows the words

but you

laid back

drunk at the wheel of a foreign car

nobody wondering where you are

fixing your hair anyway

and they will never touch you

serpent-in-claw

don't you know you are the only one

serpent-in-claw

don't you know you are the coolest kid

serpent-in-claw

and i won't ever let them get you down

and they will never touch you
