Rise Of The Cobra

OPEN!

What was withholding is BROKEN!

Shattering cracking cement and collapsing towers

Is what's FLOWING!

HALT!

I ca-...I laugh... I keep going

The White Sun is rising

Futile are attempts at hiding

For non-existent is shade

The White Sun is rising

Let the whole world know my face

...the taste

The challenger that spoke my name

I say goodby as I arrive

Repeat not will time

...The heart

The constant interruption of the corruption

What's starved of the mind, LEAVE US!

Growing footsteps blazing into Venus

33 degrees leads to the 13th step

...the scent

I don't try to relive the day I died

But I still see it

Still feel it

...the eyes

 

 

OPEN!

So the showdown has begun

I've never been insulted and complimented in such a way

By anyone

Helping, haunting, following, leading...

Dancing, the chest and head

If the ego was in ruling power

At the moment when challenged Ye would've been devoured

Staring into the mirror prepared to break you

Staring into the mirror scared to thank you

Don't look at me in pieces

Look at me whole

Don't waste me with what you think!

Unlock me with what you know

Sucking in what's forbidden with my forked tongue

Although said to be poisonous I drool the antidote

The Cobra rises not at the tune of lust

But at the tune of the Ssssss...

Now alone...

Rising...

Now one...

Rising...

...the smiling

It's all lying truth

It's all hypnotizing

It's all rising

The moment...

 

 

RISING!

What I see is what's open within me

My crown is hollow

I can't feel myself

I can't describe this

I recognize this

Absolute no control

How do you know?

It must be mutual

I've been stripped before

I want to expose my fangs no more

I want to retire my sword and shield

I want to let the tears flow

This form of me...

Why did you do this...

Why...

It's mutual...

Surrounded by holograms yet it's real

It's here...

I believe

Kisses to the mind gives the heart an eye

Love...

I can’t take this pain much longer 

missing the friend I once had 

whose been there through the good and the bad 

i was so in love it hurt so I left 

I couldn’t stay away for long 

feeling like I never belonged

i returned to the only person who said they would be there for me

only to realize they never really cared for me

see how can you claim to be someone’s friend

when at their worst you couldnt be there for them 

not because you couldn’t but simply because you didn’t want to

its okay though because I at least have sad tunes

grandma I’ll see you very soon
