about

A near death experience of dying in the desert, featuring hallucinations and breaching into the afterlife, is a metaphor symbolizing addiction.

lyrics

Lying Lucid as my vision slowly dissipates
The poison echoes with my pulse

Lying Lucid as my vision slowly dissipates
The poison slithers in my veins
An endless desert made
from sands of time that bury me
The more I struggle the more I sink

It’s a long hard road, in the serpents hole,
Its a long hard road, when you’re on your own
Send me back, Send me back, Send me back,
Take me home

Perception of this life
rapidly twists in front of me
I watch my flesh decay to bone
Hair and nails grow a morbid
cocoon that en-coffins me
My withered heart now scales over

It’s a long hard road, in the serpents hole,  Its a long hard road, when you face him alone
Send me back, Send me back, Send me back,
Take me home
