[Verse 1]

An endless circle, wide and deep

What you sow, we will reap

A deeper darkness, veils of sheer deceit

The cycle stuck on repeat

[Refrain]

Behind the hammer, out there on the edge

High upon that slippery ledge

Beyond the runes, the phantom of our youth

Follow the trail to the end

[Verse 2]

You are not blind yet you draw the bow

I guess we're not supposed to know

The truth within my heart and soul

The horn resounds, no control

[Chorus]

Chasing, chasing, chasing the serpent

Yet you are riding the wolf

Chasing, chasing, chasing the serpent

Over and over again

[Verse 3]

Open your eyes and look into the flames

Why are we playing these games?

The broken suffer, how did we come to this?

Is there more to come from the abyss?

[Refrain]

Behind the hammer, out there on the edge

High upon that slippery ledge

Beyond the runes, the phantom of our youth

Follow the trail to the end

[Chorus]

Chasing, chasing, chasing the serpent

Yet you are riding the wolf

Chasing, chasing, chasing the serpent

Over and over again

[Refrain]

Behind the hammer, out there on the edge

High upon that slippery ledge

Beyond the runes, the phantom of our youth

Follow the trail to the end

[Chorus]

Chasing, chasing, chasing the serpent

Yet you are riding the wolf (The wolf)

Chasing, chasing, chasing the serpent

Over and over again
