This Spiteful Snake Lyrics - Obzen - Meshuggah

Reality, this spiteful snake, 

Rearing its ugly head 

Venom dripping from its grin 

As it tosses yet another obstacle in our way 

If given a thousand years to collect, 

To process, to portray 

We could never encompass the voracity 

Of one single day 

Trapping us in its winding, 

It's closing malignant cycles 

A tightening coil to bind us, 

Hold us tight in unforgiving embrace 

Its all-engulfing jaws, infinite, boundless 

Biting down on the dying flesh of hope 

Its fiery breath leveling, dismantling, 

Flattening, tearing down the structure of our dreams 

Overcome, defeated 

Terrified, shivering, mute 

Reality is terror, this truth is absolute 

Reality, this spiteful snake 

Shedding its smothering veil 

A shroud to asphyxiate, 

Exterminate, eradicate
