Snakes in the Grass - Jay-Jay Johanson

I don’t wanna know

Exactly who you want to be

You keep it for yourself

And maybe that’s the way it should be

I got nowhere else to go

Lost everything you’ve given to me

I listen but you won’t tell

My eyes are open but I can’t see

I don’t wanna hear

What you are expecting from me

You’re dragging me through hell

You play me like a lion to feed

The voices in my ears

Keep telling me that this can’t be real

I must be someone else

Nothing’s like it appears to be

I guess I’m just a snake in the grass

If you can’t trust me

I guess I’m just a snake in the grass

If you can’t trust me

I gotta change this skin

That I’m a prisoner in

I know you’re standing near

Don’t hesitate come closer to me

You got nothing to fear

The truth is often harder to see

Imagine with your eyes closed

Unconscious you’re pretending to be

Someone you were before

You’re trying but can’t find what you seek

I guess I’m just a snake in the grass

If you can’t trust me

I guess I’m just a snake in the grass

If you can’t trust me

I gotta change this skin

That I’m a prisoner in
