about
The slow burn you write after listening to Alabama Shakes and Queens of the Stone Age
lyrics
A delicate imbalance
A beautiful design
I was defyin gravity
And somehow I kept my mind
But you discovered my weakness
And I gave you my time
You took away my order
And at first I felt fine
You were the snake in my Garden of Eden
You were the snake in my Garden of Eden
You didn’t know it but you made me a heathen
You were the snake, you were the snake
I listened to your whisperin
And you listened to mine
I let you wrap around me
And it felt so good at the time
I never thought you would harm me
Just wasn’t in your eyes
You may have put me off balance
But I’m not sure that you tried
If it slithers
If it hisses
What do you call it?
What do you call it?
Don’t look at the face
Check for fangs
A delicate imbalance
A beautiful design
I was defyin gravity
And then I lost my mind
I guess I grew dependent
On the warmth of your touch
I fell in Love
And loved a little too much
A beautiful design
I was defyin gravity
And somehow I kept my mind
But you discovered my weakness
And I gave you my time
You took away my order
And at first I felt fine
You were the snake in my Garden of Eden
You were the snake in my Garden of Eden
You didn’t know it but you made me a heathen
You were the snake, you were the snake
I listened to your whisperin
And you listened to mine
I let you wrap around me
And it felt so good at the time
I never thought you would harm me
Just wasn’t in your eyes
You may have put me off balance
But I’m not sure that you tried
If it slithers
If it hisses
What do you call it?
What do you call it?
Don’t look at the face
Check for fangs
A delicate imbalance
A beautiful design
I was defyin gravity
And then I lost my mind
I guess I grew dependent
On the warmth of your touch
I fell in Love
And loved a little too much
