Crawl
Skrew Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who down on the crossroad
Snake skin belly cracked skin red and
Gold eyeball seeing thru to the center of your soul
Cold cock to the heat of ya heart
Pump hot gold stomp and start fork tongue
Down the back of ya neck and whiskey breath

Who down on the crossroad

Sick taste of love on ya lips
A thousand years of pain to touch
End the crime of life
Use it up
White hot smile in yer eyes
Bit by blind truth and bloody lies
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me

Kiss the snake on his cold heart head
Eat the secrets of the dead chicken
Blood love and h***in come to sleep
In fear she says to some
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me

Who down on the crossroad
Snake skin belly cracked skin red and
Gold eyeball seeing thru to the center of your soul
Cold cock to the heat of ya heart
Pump hot gold stomp and start
Fork tongue
Down the back of ya neck and whiskey breath
Sick taste of love on ya lips
A thousand years of pain to touch

You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me crawl




You want to die with me crawl
You want to die with me
