Snake Oil and Holy Water Songtext
von Parkway Drive

You want a piece of my mind, there is no peace to find
This is all of your doubt, repaid in kind
I am alone in crowded rooms
I am a ghost in forgotten tombs
Widow maker, you're no company to keep

'Cause you can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool the world for the rest of your life
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool the world

Nobody notices, nobody cares
The curtain falls to no one, nowhere
Nobody notices, nobody cares
As the curtain falls


Soulless, spineless
Cut from the beggar's cloth
You fill your skull with their shit
'Til it runs from your mouth
Heartless, carcass
I've seen more life in dead men's eyes
I've heard more truths alone with the night

And I'd rather believe in nothing
Than believe in a fucking lie
I'd sooner fail one thousand times than regret I never tried

'Cause you can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool the world for the rest of your life
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool the world

You can't fool us all

You howl at the world but speak a dead language
You're selling your soul but no one is buying
You pray to your gods of fashion and industry
Heads in the clouds but you live on your fucking knees

On your knees

Nobody notices, nobody cares
The curtain falls to no one, nowhere
Nobody notices, nobody cares
As the curtain fucking falls


Soulless, spineless
Cut from the beggar's cloth
You fill your head with their shit
'Til it runs from your mouth
Heartless, carcass
I've seen more life in dead men's eyes
I've heard more truths alone with the night
Alone with the night

No, no peace to find
