H. I. M. - Serpent Ride lyrics

It’s a beautiful landscape

The sunset makes the coast look so clear

It’s the kind that makes you heart break

But no one has those kind of problems here

And from the sagebrush comes a dove

It comes to take away the ones you love

In camouflage comes a dove, and it comes to take away the ones you love

Wake up you faithless, see your heartbreak gone

The wolf has found a way to lead this foolish flock of sheep astray

And the clouds make fearful noises and slowly turn black and shake

The darkness comes around you

The dark has come to take

And it will cut the life right from you and leave you standing in the rain

With no where left to run to, and no one left to love you but the pain

Wake up you faithless, see your heartbreak gone

It’s no use trying to hold on

Wake up you faithless, you won’t be here for long

And this shipwreck will soon be gone

(this shipwreck will soon be gone)

All that I know is what I’ve learned from troubled times

I’ve stood alone on the last shore, weapon in hand under black skies

I have been hunted through the valleys and the corners of my life

Fight or die

Wake up you faithless, see your heartbreak gone

It’s no use trying to hold on

Wake up you faithless, you won’t be here for long

And this shipwreck will soon be gone

Wake up you faithless
