Lyric discussion by Masato0h 

For those of you that have the version from the Walking Dead [Serpents (demo) on Spotify or Serpents (basement) on iTunes] The lyrics are different:

It was a close call Sitting in the back of the room with a ball I had thrown at you, But you didn't know. Lookin at my black eye. I feel safe at times. Certain emblems Tell me it's time

Serpents in my mind Looking for your crimes Everything changes I don't want to mine to this time

You enjoy sucking on poison I will belong to someone other than you I had a thought you would take me someday And listen on

Serpents in my mind I am searching for your crimes Everything changes In time

I was lost in my mistake Now I'm looking for my Intentions, Even I've been at the dark, dark sea Better run, Better run

Serpents in my mind Looking for your crimes When everything changes There's no more time Possibly mine. Nights, Days

Walking on my street at night I feel a little safe, a little in fear this time, My hand in clutch, You've got a knife? Well I've got a gun and

Serpents in my mind, Looking for your crimes, Everything changes, Looking for my crimes, Twisting in despair

I think you are mostly right. This is what I hear from the Serpents (Demo) version:

It was a close call, Sitting in the back of the room With a ball I had thrown at you, And you didn't know.

Looking at my black eye, I feel safe at times. Certain emblems Tell me it's time;

Serpents in my mind, Looking for your crimes; Everything changes I don't want mine this time.
