Liars (Live At 5082)

INTRO

Intro

It’s about a snake. Enjoy.

Special thanks to Joseph Heenan for the artwork commission. Really gives the song some fitting visual context. Also to my brother Kyle Trevenen for his invaluable mixing and mastering guidance.

LYRICS

Give in
You must have risked it
When you got that biscuit

They say within those troubled days,
You’ve got to learn to ride the waves,
But sometimes much easier, to sink down at the bottom,
Waiting for that something, I forget

Oh, what's that? At the bottom of your back!
Paint the ancient spiral, say goodbye to normal life now
Never, ever, never to return

Laser light array,
Seen a little bit too much today.
It must have been waiting from the start
Guaranteed to blow brain into one hundred thousand parts given time
Be careful not to lose your mind,
when the cosmic snake goes up your spine

Across the waters, distant land, up into space, through desert sand
Many a man has given his life up to the fate of great adventure,
and many more will crack, searching within

I told them I was crazy
They didn’t believe me
(They didn’t believe me)

Cosmic Snake
