Snakeshedskin (4:05)

You’re an angel in a little girl
In an angel’s clothing
Foil wings rip…
You’re an angel inside a little girl
Wearing an angel’s outfit
Foil wings rip your sides

You can’t carry me now

You wear holy in your devil’s world
When cobalt blue skies fall down by your sides
It’s the western curse
It’s a soul trap
But it’s heaven in disguise…

Once you take yours off

Shed your pretense
Like snakeshedskin
Shed legacy
Like snakeshedskin
Shed your raised one
Like snakeshedskin
Shed the other one
Like snakeshedskin

Waters rise and spirits fall
And spirits rise through water
Sunspot position you’ll never get
Sans hell’s badge alma-mater, baby

Starry eyes in a starry dress
I must confess: you look beautiful tonight
You’re spitting tongues, throwing fingers
No no no
No no, no no no.

Shed inheritence
Like snakeshedskin
Shed your mortal coil
Like snakeshedskin
Shed your black hole sun
Like snakeshedskin
Shed your judgement gun
Like snakeshedskin

Shed your pretense
Like snakeshedskin
Shed legacy
Like snakeshedskin
Shed your raised one
Like snakeshedskin
Shed your judgement gun
Like snakeshedskin

Shed Whitehorse.
Shed Star.
Shed Andean.
Shed your Braeside.
Shed me, shed me

Like snakeshedskin
