The Snake Inside Lyrics

Album: Drift

Snapping twigs and rustles in the bushes

Something's lurking out of sight

Every sense is on the alert

Every muscle tense

Glowing screen and ear-splitting noises

No escape from TV's call

Minutes turning into hours

In your self-built cage

Why do you yield to the unreal?

Why do you crave for the artificial?

Why do you yield to the unreal?

Why can't you see it's a deadly ritual?

Every creature's guided by their instinct

Spiral of continuous connection

Digital dependency

Technological hysteria

Leading you astray

Why do you yield to the unreal?

Why do you crave for the artificial?

Why do you yield to the unreal?

Why can't you see it's a deadly ritual?

Wake up

Your consciousness is prey

Feast for your reptile brain

The ancient beast you cannot tame

Wake up

It's out of your control

It wants more and more

The snake inside is swallowing you whole

Luscious foods and beautiful fake bodies

Supernormal Stimuli

Triggers of the primal urges

Marketing gone wild

Wake up

Your consciousness is prey

Feast for your reptile brain

The ancient beast you cannot tame

Wake up

It's out of your control

It wants more and more

The snake inside is swallowing you whole

Wake up

Your consciousness is prey

Feast for your reptile brain

The ancient beast you cannot tame

Wake up

It's out of your control

It wants more and more

The snake inside is swallowing you whole
