[Intro – Deep Sub-Bass + Metallic Resonance] [Low Raspy Female] Something moves Where my hair once fell Soft against my shoulders Alive I close my eyes But I can still Feel them [Slow Ritual Beat Enters] [Verse 1 – Low Raspy Female] Cold beneath my fingertips Coiling slowly down my back Every movement unfamiliar Every whisper in the black I don't reach For mirrors anymore I don't need To see I can feel The woman disappearing Piece By piece [Pre-Chorus – Breathy Female] Beautiful once Terrible now Tell me... Which one Was ever mine? [Chorus – Haunting Female] Serpent crown Heavy on my head Serpent crown Where my beauty used to rest Every coil Every scale Another piece Of what remains Serpent crown I don't know My face [Extended Ritual Ethnotronica Instrumental] [Elastic Sub-Bass + Rolling Frame Drums] [Ancient Lyre – Dark Repeating Motif] [Serpentine Electronic Textures] [Verse 2 – Raspy Female] They move When I am frightened They rise When I feel rage They sleep against My shoulders When sorrow Takes its place Sometimes In the darkness I forget What I've become Then something Moves beside my cheek And I remember All at once [Deep Hypnotic Bass Passage] [Low Female] I used to braid My hair I used to wear Flowers there Now even memory Feels cruel [Percussion Builds] [Chorus – Layered Female Vocals] Serpent crown Heavy on my head Serpent crown Where my beauty used to rest Every coil Every scale Another piece Of what remains Serpent crown I don't know My face [Extended Instrumental Drop] [Heavy Frame Drums + Deep Sub-Bass] [Serpentine Textures Circle the Stereo Field] [Wordless Female Melisma – Dark and Restrained] [Bridge – Breathy Female] At first I hated them Every movement Every sound Then one night I started crying And they curled Around me [Music Strips Back] [Low Raspy Female] They were the only living things That didn't Turn away [Ancient Lyre Returns] [Instrumental Rise] [Final Chorus – Female Rising] Serpent crown Rest upon my head Serpent crown Stay with me instead Let them fear What they created Let them whisper Let them stare Serpent crown If I must Carry this At least... I won't carry it Alone [Extended Ritual Instrumental] [Rolling Bass + Frame Drums + Dark Lyre] [Outro – Low Raspy Female] I stopped Calling them a curse Long before I stopped Missing my hair
