Sidewinder Lyrics

*snake's rattle sound with guitars*
I slide through the wasteland that's my world
My hunger takes your life, preyed on to keep me alive, yeah

*chorus*
Mercy's all that you need, mercy's empty in me
Can't you feel the poison rising out of...

    This song meaning has been confirmed by Matt (aka M. Shadows). It's basically just to paint a picture of human greed and human nature in the form of a snake. The snake slides through the desert, kills things, and does what it feels natural. Matt compared it to a snake because he feels that society makes us hide our human nature and we get punished for natural feelings and instincts.
