[Verse 1] You left dust on the porch And a ring in the sink Mama said time gets cruel When it gives you a drink I still pass that turnoff By the split oak tree Your name tastes like penny metal When it cuts through me [Pre-Chorus] And I try to move on But you pull like a tide One look, one lie And I’m back inside [Chorus] Supernova Serpent You burned me slow Supernova Serpent You were all I know (Oh, oh) I keep your spark Under my skin [Verse 2] Your old truck door still sticks Like a bad last line I can hear your laugh In the brake of my mind There’s a red scar sunset On the fields by Mill Creek And every low-slung memory Still comes looking for me [Pre-Chorus] And I try to move on But you pull like a tide One look, one lie And I’m back inside [Chorus] Supernova Serpent You burned me slow Supernova Serpent You were all I know (Oh, oh) I keep your spark Under my skin [Bridge] Now the night don’t save me It just names what’s gone I wore your ghost too long Now I’m learning my own song I was made of ashes I was made to mend If I ever touch that fire I won’t touch it again [Final Chorus] Supernova Serpent You burned me slow Supernova Serpent You were all I know (Oh, oh) I keep your spark Under my skin Supernova Serpent I let you in
