about

This song describes a phase of life where humans fall into dark state of mind. The lyrical concept is a metaphor of humans who fail to think, then in the darkness he meets the figure of The Snake itself who offers a ride and it exposes all fear and the deep dark side of humanity to achieve freedom. The musical concept uses a repetitive musical pattern to represent the snake that slithers. Using musical tones with a dark and quirky mood to support the semiotic of the song. It's a journey of mind.

lyrics

A serpent crawled beneath my skin
It’s creeping up without a fright
I feel a silent flow of sin
It’s sneaking up to mute the light
Invoking unreality
It was a false theophany
Provoking immortality
Poisonous venom kills all humanity
 
Unconsciousness
Infinity
There’s nothing more in this world that I can take
All I have to do is ride The Snake
 
I see people live in pain
They’re creeping out into the night
I see their mind strained with shackled chains

They’re living up without a fight
We are the evil’s sacrifice
Drape our lives from the devil’s dice
Shedding the tears of agony
Poisonous venom kills all humanity

Unconsciousness
Infinity
There’s nothing more in this world that I can take
All I have to do is ride The Snake

Unconsious
Subconscious
The void
Infinity
Scaled
Venomed
Ride the snake
 
I turned my self into The Snake
I was creeping out this heavy blight
Now my mind’s open wide awake
I want the evil to reignite
Unbroken all of mystery
Forsaken all sincerity
Disbelieving epiphany
Poisonous venom kills all humanity

Unconsciousness
Infinity
There’s nothing more in this world that I can take
All I have to do is ride The Snake
