[Verse]
G6sus4 Em
It was a close call
G6sus4 Em
Sitting in the back of the room
G6sus4
With a boy gettin' it on
Em F# C
But they didn't know

Closing on my black eye
C Em C
Feel safe at times

Certain emblems

Tell me it's time

[Chorus]
C Em F#
Serpents in my mind
C Em F#
Looking for your crimes
C Em F#
Everything changes
C Em F#
I don't want mine to this time
[Verse]
C Em
You enjoy sucking on dreams
C Em
So I will fall asleep with someone other than you
C Em F#
I had a thought you would take me seriously
C Em F#
And listen on
[Chorus]
C Em F#
Serpents in my mind
C Em F# C
I'm searching for your crimes
Em F#
Everything changes
C
In time
[Verse]
Em
You'll stay frozen in time
C
Collagen girls
Em C
Controlling minds
Em
You hold the mirror well
F# C Em F#
To everybody else
[Chorus]
C Em F#
Serpents in my mind
C Em F# C
Trying to forgive your crimes
Em F# C
Everyone changes in time

I hope he changes this time
