lyrics

I hate the snake in this bag
100 pounds of it on my back.
You slithery stone
this crowd seems to love us so.
For all of those who are afraid to come near
it keeps your distance as well as it should
trust me
it's for your own good
don't want you so close to me

through the curtains
I'm all I'm not
hell, I'm even a man my father would've never fought
so, Damien
let's prove the old man wrong
even if he doesn't care
we're moving on.

This airplane vodka don't help at all
I ain't going out there without an 8-ball
This crowd calls my name
I answer back to them in shame
Which way do I go
Who am I up against
Where's my 8-ball you son of a bitch
Just give this kid the count
I'll see myself out
Just give me my money now.

Cos out there
I'm all I'm not
all that's left of me's dying out there in a parking lot
Aurelian
we'll prove the old man wrong
even if he doesn't care
we're moving on

I used to hate the snake in this bag
but it's been around longer than my dad
it serves and protects
this crowd seems to love us still
days are brighter and my head's on straight
I started yoga
hell I lost a little weight
I think I may have found my good
I found my name again.

through the curtains
I'm all I'm not
hell, I'm even a man my father would've never fought
so, Damien
let's prove the old man wrong
even if he doesn't care
we're moving on.

even if he doesn't care.
