Your arms that take
Your arms invertebrate
Venomous, constricting and cold

Blood warms to life
Tongue flickers in time
Vibrations awaken your soul

The mind sheds away
You circle, break, swerve and stay
You stare so deep, you rise so tall

You gently sway, your silhouette writhes and plays
It's poison up on the wall
Drumming hearts they sync and then slow

(You) whisper songs of peace and of home
Whisper promise though don't show what you see
When those black diamonds stare straight through to me

Flicker in time
Gently entwine
Daggers slide sharper than pain

Rise up, around
Liquid and vapor
A warmth that creeps up through my veins

Now is your time
And I've walked this line
(While) you slid down deep in my soul

I fade away as you breathe your song heavy
And I take my show on the road
Slide on black racer, slide on
