Little Viper

(album: Take No Prisoners - 2023)

Time will tell, it always does unless the end comes early
Then the story will live on, the legend of the years
Take your life, a sorry tale, they can't believe you worried
Leave behind what others see and read about for years

Little Viper, once you had it all
Little Viper ruled the world
Little Viper, once you had it all
Little Viper ruled the world

There's a coming storm
No one to catch you
There's a coming storm
As the darkness closes in
There's a coming storm
No one to catch you
There's a coming storm

Time is waiting in the wings, she hides behind the curtain
Break a leg and kiss the air, one last night to shine
Throw your moves and sing your song, tonight they all adore you
The hotel room's a lonely place, with time to face your fears

Little Viper, once you had it all
Little Viper ruled the world
Little Viper, once you had it all
Little Viper ruled the world

There's a coming storm
No one to catch you
There's a coming storm
As the darkness closes in
There's a coming storm
No one to catch you
There's a coming storm

Alone on the bathroom floor
All alone with no one left to call, no
There's no one, no one, no one left to call
One more night crying on your own

There's a coming storm
No one to catch you
There's a coming storm
As the darkness closes in
There's a coming storm
No one to catch you
There's a coming storm

Riders of justice
Oh, deliverance
Riders of justice
Here comes the end
Midnight in Soho will leave you shadow blind
A prophet under the neon will burn across the sky
