Poison Was the Cure lyrics

I miss the warm embrace I felt f

First time you touched me

Secure and safe in open arms

I should have known you'd crush me

A snake you were when we met

I loved you anyway

Pulling out your poison fangs

The venom never goes away

Serpent swims free in my blood

Dragons sleeping in my veins

Jackyl speaking with my tongue

Roach egg laying in my brain

Once stalked beneath your shadow

Sleepwalking to the gallows

I'm the sun that beats your brow in

'Til I finally threw the towel in

Never knowing if I'd wake up

In a whirlpool, got redundant

My brain was just some driftwood

In a cesspool, I became dead

From a rockstar to a desk fool

Was my destiny, someone said

Love's a tide pool

Taste the water, life's abundant

Taste me!
