Copperhead

It's taken me five years to make this song - December 2011 was when I came up with the riff, but I wasn't good enough on drums until, like, last week. Main inspiration taken from Proverbs ch. 5. (audio mix updated 9/6/16) Lyrics: Ten fingers circling the way that you go Grasping at your heel to catch the sole Breathing easy, sure of the snare A freezing shadow in the frozen air Ooh, she bites deep like a copperhead / The pain could make you wish you were dead Now listen to me shouting run away / Get out and fight another day Oh, she knows exactly what you want That dress, those shoes, and she's on the hunt Murder on the mind, running out of time Better brace yourself for pain up front How good's your memory when you're under the gun If it's a haze, you're not the only one But now's the time as the jaws come down To recall that you're a soldier, son Ooh, she bites deep like a copperhead / The pain could make you wish you were dead Now listen to me shouting run away / Get out and fight another day Now you're feeling strong Now your fear is gone Toss your shield away Now you're easy prey The King has not commanded you to win somehow To walk proud and cut the devil down No, you resist, you resist and you trust The Lamb wins, and that's your way out Ooh, she bites deep like a copperhead / The pain could make you wish you were dead Now listen to me shouting run away / Get out and fight another day Ooh, she bites deep like a copperhead / The pain could make you wish you were dead Now listen to me shouting run away / Get out and fight another day Fight another day Fight another day
