Serpent Trains

Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave
Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave

Trees are like bodies rapt in ecstasy
I am moving too fast to get close to anybody

To be exposed would be my demise
To be naked in front of your eyes

Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave
Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave

Her skin wears a new pattern of hope
He looks at her kindly she laughs at a joke
But it's over too quickly with a slam and a yell
And there she runs swiftly
Swiftly running with her will

Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave
Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave

An anchor moves up and a nomad goes free
The new becomes her robe she wears lovingly

Her body moves forward the lightness her muse
All the faces are blurring too alluring to choose

Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave
Serpent trains are passing through my veins and I must leave
