 Struggling with Snake Oil? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Well I never
I never saw
Anybody move like that before
Why do we spend so much time 
Here on the floor
Looking up like I did before
Your intoxicating movement ate away
At my sad eyes and my headache

I never 
I never thought
I'd be falling I'd be caught
I see a bone and a straw in the dirt
White and if by the light 
I squint against his shirt
My sleeping pills melted 
And I sleep fine

The tears on my shoulder 
Won't keep me up tonight
The snake around my finger 
Starts to unwind

Soak up the weather
Suck up the sun
Into your bones
Then move on

I see a snake and a girl in the snow
White and if by the light
I feel the itch to go
The tears on my shoulder
Freeze then boil
I wouldn't be here
If not for your snake oil
