Slither - Lyrics - Velvet Revolver

Velvet Revolver is an American hard rock supergroup consisting of former Guns N' Roses members Slash, Duff McKagan, and Matt Sorum, alongside Dave Kushner formerly of punk band Wasted Youth and Stone Temple Pilots vocalist Scott Weiland who left the band in 2008. In 2004, the band achieved commercial success with their debut album, Contraband. Despite positive reviews, some critics initially described Velvet Revolver as a mere combination of Stone Temple Pilots and Guns N' Roses, criticizing them for a "disconnection" between Scott Weiland and the rest of the band. With their single "Slither", they won the 2005 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance.

Hey! Hey! Hey! When you look you See right through me Cut the rope I fell to my knees Born and broken Every single time Always keep me Under finger That's the spot Where you run to me Might see some type Of pleasure in my mind Yeah here comes the water It comes to wash away The sins of you and I This time you'll see Hey! Hey! Hey! When you seek me You destroy me *** my mind and Smell the poppies Born and bloodied Every single time Always keep me Under finger That's the spot Where you might linger Might see some type Of pleasure in my mind Yeah here comes the water It comes to wash away The sins of you and I This time you'll see Like holy water It only burns you faster Than you'd ever dry This time with me When you look you See right through me Cut the rope I fell to my knees Born and bloodied Every single time Yeah here comes the water It comes to wash away The sins of you and I This time you'll see Like holy water It only burns you faster Than you'd ever dry This time with me Hey! Hey! Hey!
