Bastille - Snakes lyrics
[Bastille - Snakes lyrics]
Ooh, I'm not ready ooh, I'm not ready
Ooh, I'm not ready ooh, I'm not ready
Snakes are biting at my heels
The worries that refuse to let us go
I’ve been kicking them away
And hoping not to let them take control
Ooh, I’m not ready
Drink to escape their bites
Show me distraction even for just one night
'Cause it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
Yes, it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
And I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-ole ooh, I'm not ready
Ooh, I'm not ready
Now these days are feeling dark
We're struggling to figure out last year
When the woman on the news
Keeps saying things that no one wants to hear
Ooh, I’m not ready drink to escape our minds
Show me distraction even for just one night
'Cause it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
Yes, it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
And I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-ole
Yes, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-o-ole ooh, I'm not ready
Ooh, I'm not ready
"Come on
Boys let's go tear this place apart!
(Woo, Oh) "
'Cause, I know life is simple when
I can just ignore it all
'Cause, I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I know
Life is simple when i can just ignore it all
'Cause, I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I know
If I’m not ready
('Cause, I know, 'cause I know
'cause I know) snakes will consume me whole
('Cause, I know, 'cause I know
'cause I know) if I'm not steady
('Cause, I know, 'cause I know
'cause I know) maybe they'll take control
('Cause, I know, 'cause I know
'cause I know)
But, it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
Yes, it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-ole
Yes, I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-o-ole
Ooh, I'm not ready ooh, I'm not ready
Snakes are biting at my heels
The worries that refuse to let us go
I’ve been kicking them away
And hoping not to let them take control
Ooh, I’m not ready
Drink to escape their bites
Show me distraction even for just one night
'Cause it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
Yes, it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
And I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-ole ooh, I'm not ready
Ooh, I'm not ready
Now these days are feeling dark
We're struggling to figure out last year
When the woman on the news
Keeps saying things that no one wants to hear
Ooh, I’m not ready drink to escape our minds
Show me distraction even for just one night
'Cause it's easier to bury

Yes, it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
And I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-ole
Yes, I pray for the ground
To swallow me who-o-ole ooh, I'm not ready
