Ethric Double Lyrics

They write the songs,
And you sing the passages at night.
They hold the notes high,
You keep them down so it's hard.
Do you cover them up so they can't hear them?
They can't hear because they don't believe them.
They don't believe it because they can't see it.
Do they cover their eyes?


I think you're in the right place,
The shawl over your face is so long.
Black and white tooth coat charms,
You placed along the bones of your arms.
Did you cover them up so they can't see them?
They can't see them if they don't believe them.
They don't believe them because they can't see them.
Do they cover their eyes?

(2x)
Small lakes, they pour out of my lungs.
Down to feed tones in holes
Of depleted roots of the ground,
Dug by relics in tombs.
Altered and reborn from blight,
That was hidden from the eye.
My tongue cleanses shapes and encourages return.

(2x)
I am full.
I am safe.
I am more empty than known.

Born out of the ashes of seminal art thrashers Botch and Minneapolis punk heroes Kill Sadie, Seattle's These Arms are Snakes have fast-become an integral part of the Pacific Northwest's ever-dynamic musical fabric. The band formed in Seattle, Washington in 2002 and began employing sinister guitar licks mixed with equal parts snarly vocals and a penchant for spaced out musical long form; painting the buzz-heavy Snakes as anything but conventional.

On January 15, 2010, the band released a statement announcing their end.

Brian Cook is now in Russian Circles.
Ryan Frederiksen is now in Narrows.
Steve Sneer is now in Crypts. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
