[Intro]
Like a snake around my heart
Like a snake around my heart

[Verse 1]
When I was feeling low
Like I was gonna fall
You were the one that I would call, I would tell it all
And it was so true
Cause you were my boo
Anything that I had you know I'd give to you
For a little while I thought that you were cool
So, I would give you things like I used to do
Like I be flying high when you come around
And you always bring me down

[Chorus]
You're whispering, poisoning
Like a snake around my heart
Release with ease cause I can't breathе
Like a snake around my heart
Wе're not in sync, I thought we were friends
But you only played the part
I let you in, why again
I'll treat you like the snake you are
Like a snake around my heart
[Verse 2]
And everytime I'm weak
I feel something new
That new job, new love
I could count on you
Should we ride around, should we work it out?
Give me good advice when I'm full of doubt
It took me quite a while but now I know the truth
I can't admit a thing that you would rather do
No need to see your work cause you know you're through
This is how I'll remember you

[Chorus]
You're whispering, poisoning
Like a snake around my heart
Release with ease cause I can't breathe
Like a snake around my heart
We're not in sync, I thought we were friends
But you only played the part
I let you in, why again
I'll treat you like the snake you are
Like a snake around my heart

[Bridge]
So why, why is it that everytime I find someone
You try to tell me that there's a problem
And why, why is it that everytime I tell you something
I hear it back from someone else
And why, why is it that everytime I tell you my dreams
You tell me not to expect too much
And why, why is it that I called you my friend
When I don't even know what stand you're in
[Chorus]
You're whispering, poisoning
Like a snake around my heart
Release with ease cause I can't breathe
Like a snake around my heart
We're not in sync, I thought we were friends
But you only played the part
I let you in, why again
I'll treat you like the snake you are
Like a snake around my heart
