Snake Bite

Roman script

every drop of blood in my body screams for you
if i still had the means to sleep, i'd dream of you
saying that i love you, doesn't feel right
such an understatement, poisons me like a snake bite
i might make up an excuse not to work and just stay with you
only 23 when we met yeah you were 21
knew you through a friend of a friend who said "don't try your luck"
i knew what i wanted
i knew right when we started
but in your early 20's two years can mean a fucking lot
didn't know how to react i was honest
told you what i wanted then let you settle on it
three weeks and you said to me, i've never had the room to breathe
i've never lived this life for me or asked what iwanted
on those stairs i bit my tongue
if i spoke you would have up and run
every drop of blood in my body screams for you
if i still had the means to sleep i'd dream of you
saying that i love you doesn't feel right
such an understatement, poisons me like a snake bite
i might make up an excuse not to work and just stay with you
love is like the apple from the garden one bite, you're fucked
said that we would stick out till friday
for the next three months
waited for the day when i wouldn't have to pretend
when saying those three words
wouldn't make you want to up and run
brave it, take it
i could wait, fuck waiting
one shot to make this or break this
just say it
just say it
just say it
every drop of blood in my body screams for you (screams for you)
if i had the means to sleep i'd dream of you (i'd dream of you)
saying that i love you doesnt feel right
such an understatement poisons me like a snake bite
i might make up an excuse not to work
and just stay with you (stay with you)
next thing i know
i'm holding you close
with water on your cheeks you whisper to me
every drop of blood in my body screams for you
if i still had the means to sleep i'd dream of you
saying that i love you doesn't feel right
such an understatement poisons me like a snake bite
i might make up an excuse not work
and just stay with you (stay with you)
