Voodoo Snake ➕By KOTO

[Verse 1] Moon over the sugarcane Footprints cut the clay You came out of the river reeds With a grin that wouldn’t stay Black beads on your wrist Ash in your hair You traced a line around my heart Like you owned me there [Pre-Chorus] Hiss, hiss I heard you call Hiss, hiss I felt my walls fall You shook the bone You read my face And every little lie I kept Crawled out its place [Chorus] Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Wrap me up, don’t let me break Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake I can’t run, I can’t escape Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Skin on fire, heart awake Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake You bite once, then I ache [Verse 2] Gold chain hanging from your teeth Mud on your boots You struck a match in the dark Then vanished in the roots I tried to wash your name away With salt and rain But every time I close my eyes You slither back again [Pre-Chorus] Hiss, hiss I hear your prayer Hiss, hiss It cuts the air You know the way You know the sting You turn the cold inside my chest Into a live wire thing [Chorus] Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Wrap me up, don’t let me break Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake I can’t run, I can’t escape Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Skin on fire, heart awake Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake You bite once, then I ache [Bridge] Oh, when the drums go deep And the night goes thin I see your shadow in my doorway And I let you in Oh, I know your kiss Leaves a curse on my tongue But the spell is in the undoing And I’m already gone [Final Chorus] Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Wrap me up, don’t let me break Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake I can’t run, I can’t escape Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Skin on fire, heart awake Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake You bite once, then I ache Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake Take my name, take what you take Voodoo snake, Voodoo snake I’m yours now when the dawn comes late
