The Serpent's Dream

Lyrics

[Intro]


(Ooh, ooh-ooh...)


(Soft electric piano chords floating)


(Mmm, yeah...)


[Verse 1]
Shattered hourglass sand
Weaved inside the palm of my hand
Quiet shadows creep on the wall
Waiting for the gravity's call
A pattern left unseen
Beneath the velvet green
All the footprints washed by the shore
Who we were before...

[Chorus]
The serpent she sleeps
Underneath the deep
Shedding all her past
Free of chains at last
Quietly she waits
For the shifting gates
To begin again...

[Bridge]


(Tempo shifts, groove accelerates into a syncopated jazzy neo-soul beat)


(Bassline gets funky, crisp drums kick in)
Oh, the rhythm is taking over the clay
Washing all the dusty fears away
Feel the bassline shaking up the spine
Every single star begins to align!

[Chorus 2]
The serpent she wakes!
And the ground it shakes!
Rising to the sun
New life has begun!
Through the fire she will glide
Turning with the tide
She will rise, she will fly!
She will rise, she will fly!

(Yeah, she will fly...)


[Outro]


(Beat slows down, returning to atmospheric Rhodes piano)
She crawls... she flies...
Underneath the skies...
To the very start...

(Ooh-ooh...)


(Fades out with quiet chord swell)
