Snake Eyes

You hold it in your hands

And let it flow, this cruelty

Of youth as you fall again

Alone in the compromise of truth

It's in the eyes

I can tell, you will always be danger

We had it tonight

Why do you leave it open?

And the stakes remain too high

For this silent mind

And the shake, the lonely itch

That course down my spine

To leave a love divine

Don't leave a love divine

It's a watertight excuse

It's in the eyes

I can tell, you will always be danger

We had it tonight

Why do we always seek absolution?

It's in the eyes

I can tell, you will always be danger

How does the earth around your feet

Just slip away?

And the bandit will greet you in the night

With snake eyes

The most precious type

It's in the eyes

I can tell, you will always be danger

We had it tonight

Why do we always seek absolution?

It's in the eyes

I can tell, you will always be danger
