Snakes

Bastille

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 Been 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 whole 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 whole Yes, I pray for the ground to swallow me whole Ooh, I'm not ready Ooh, I'm not ready "Come on, boys. Let's go tear this place apart!" '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 Life is simple when I can just ignore it all 'Cause I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I know If I'm not ready Snakes will consume me whole If I'm not steady Baby they'll take control 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 whole Yes, I know, I know, I know It's not the right way to go But I pray for the ground to swallow me whole --- Snakes - Bastille
