Desperate COnfusion (or The Snake)
Written By Glen Benson  

[Verse 1]
 Deep within your selfish soul, you feel a paniced thrust
 Pieces of your heart fall out, and watch them melt to rust
 Stripped of all your dignity, you have no place at home
 The ambassador who you counted on, has left you on your own

[Chorus]
Gods are oftend synthisized and leaders lead you on
Prayers are only answered by long distance telephone
Screaming sends a signal that the snake is waiting for
Hold your breath and close your eyes, he waits at your door

[Verse 2]
Crumbling walls surround your soul, falling as you stare
Deep in to the open pit, there is nothing for you there
Somewhere in the distance, you hear a familiar sound
Your pounding heart your weeping eyes, gaze up from the ground

[Verse 3]
All the dreams you once had, seem a distant memory
Filling in the restless nights, you reached your final plea
The glitter and the speed of light, have you mezmerized its true
And now you see the snake has teeth, and its clear hes here for you


[bridge]
Why did you let go and let it slip away
All the world was waiting a child at heart and play
The dreams you had fade to grey, future turns to past
in front of you its all to clear, nothings meant to last
Beauty makes for camaflauge, the snake knows this well
Pick him up and feel the bite, taste the burn of hell


{Chorus]
