I wandered far away with my love
I feel the tall grass on my legs
The sun is warm, the birds are singing
I should've run when I had the chance
I felt him sliding up beside me
His words they played upon my pride
I felt the lie wrap all around me
I let his whisper hypnotize
Did He really say it?
Why is He keeping you down?
Don't you want to taste it?
Freedom without Him around?
Don't you want to know?
Don't you want to choose?
You want it, don't you?
Don't you?
I took the fruit of my desire
Sweet the poison in my mouth
Awake, awake the fall, the fire
The lie constricts, the curse clamps down
Did He really say it?
Why is He keeping you down?
Don't you want to taste it?
Freedom without Him around?
Don't you want to know?
Don't you want to choose?
You want it, don't you?
Don't you?
Shame the venom running through my veins
A curse, a cancer, and my death
And every child of mine
will feel the serpent's bite
But one will crush his head
Oh come and crush his head
Oh come and crush his
Head
Crush his head!
