If Hope Dies - Father Figure

Father Figure

yeah, you are the king snake
gliding through the grass
all attempts to catch you have ended
in empty grasps
you slid into our hearts
and unleashed your venemous tongue
its now more than i can stand to see you continue on
ever the sarcastic one, i can see
your forked tongue flicker between your lips
tasting the wind finding someone else to lie to again
bearing nothing but an armful of empty promises
your arms spread wide open with a daggers embrace
i wont believe your poisoned words ever again
i can not manage to look you in your eyes now,
without trying to burn a hole right through your head
these every day masquerades only serve to make my heart sick
yeah, you are the king snake
gliding through the grass
all attempts to catch you have ended
in empty grasps
you slid into our hearts
and unleashed your venemous tongue
its now more than i can stand to see you continue on
your arms spread wide open with a daggers embrace
i wont believe your poisoned words ever again
i can see right through you
ever the sarcastic one, i can see
your forked tongue flicker between your lips
tasting the wind finding someone else to lie to again
bearing nothing but an armful of empty promises
your continued existence is meaningless
someday you wi will learn of all the pain youve made
and i hope that realization wi will bring you to your knees
that you have led a life
hurting those who could have loved you most
your continued existence is meaningless
i can not manage to look you in your eyes now
without trying to burn a hole right through your head
these everyday masquerades only serve to make my heart sick
oh yeah, you are the great deciever
your arms spread wide open,
with a poisoned embrace
i wont believe your poisoned words ever again
