I knew this was a big mistake
There's a fine line drawing
My senses together
And I think its about to break
If I listen close
I can hear them singers, oooh
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up, it's gonna, race gonna break through the border line
Nightshades on warning
Give me strength at least give me a line
Give me anything even sympathy
Theres a chance you could be right
If I listen close
I can hear them singers ooohh.
Voices in your body
Coming through on the radio
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up, it's gonna, race gonna break through the border line
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up, it's gonna, race gonna break through the border line

It's gonna race, gonna break, gonna move up to the border line
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up, it's gonna, race gonna break through the border line
The union of the snake is on the climb
It's gonna race, gonna break, gonna move up to the border line
