rattlesnake

So the flag is up when things are corrupt But the help is low when she starts to show So I guess I'll face the snake on my own While I battle her rattle inside my bones Oh and viewing the depths of my soul alone Makes the rattlesnake find ways to break the bones So just let me be And don't tread on me So the flag is down when she's not around But she slithers her way for a later stay She seems to find ways to make me break As she slithers in my skin to make me shake Oh and everyone knows when she is awake Cause the rattle of the snake makes us shiver and shake So just let me be And don't tread on me
