Serpentine

From If Not Winter2025

Written by Darcy Baylis, Photographic Memory, Wisp

Lyrics

Serpentine

Gasoline near my feet Your tears burn through my heartbeat And if you say that you would stay Hold me 'til the morning breaks

It's been a while since I've seen you Let's spin out and say how we feel, oh Tell you you're safe with me always Your fears, I'll carry them far away

You always knew You always knew You always knew I'd wanna be next to you

And I'm not underwater yet But if I were to be (were to be) You'd be the one to pull me down And make it hard to breathe

It's been a while since I've seen you Let's spin out and say how we feel, oh Tell you you're safe with me always Your fears, I'll carry them far away

You always knew You always knew You always knew I'd wanna be next to you

Sometimes, I don't know, I'm just scared Scared of what? You have a language that I can't understand
