What's coming through is alive
What's holding up is a mirror
But what's singing songs is a snake, it is
Looking to turn my piss to wine
They're both totally void of hate
And killing me just the same
The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again
And I feel this coming over like a storm again
Considerately

Venomous voice, tempts me
And drains me, bleeds me
Leaves me cracked and empty
Drags me down like some sweet gravity

So long
We wish you well
You told us how you weren't afraid to die
Well, so long
Don't cry
Or feel too down
Not all martyrs see divinity
But at least you tried

No way to recall
What it was that you had said to me?
Like I care at all
But it was so loud
You sure could yell
You took a stand on every little thing
And so loud

The passage evokes a sense of inner turmoil and existential struggle, where the vivid imagery of life, reflection, and temptation intertwine. The "alive" force represents something vibrant and powerful, yet it is mirrored by the reflective surface, perhaps indicating self-awareness or introspection. The snake, often symbolic of both danger and transformation, sings songs of temptation, attempting to turn something mundane (piss) into something divine (wine), yet it remains void of malice, suggesting a subtle, insidious influence that doesn’t appear harmful but still causes destruction. The snake's hissing and the blood's plea to "open up my heart again" create a tension between the desire for healing and the struggle against forces that drain and harm. The venomous voice tempts and depletes, leaving the speaker cracked and empty, as if caught in an irresistible pull, a gravity that drags them down. Despite this, there’s a sense of quiet reflection, as if this storm of emotions and temptations is both inevitable and approached with a degree of consideration or acceptance.

Yeah, standing above the crowd
He had a voice that was strong and loud and I
Swallowed his facade 'cause I'm so
Eager to identify with
Someone above the ground
