Poison

I know you've loved before
Don't pretend I'm first
I've been on either side of letting someone down and
I don't know which one's worse

I lay down
Just to see what you would feel like next to me
I know now
Too much of anything is poison
And it's laced upon your lips
But the cure is in the venom
So I keep on coming back
My soul is stained with your poison

Lies linger off your lips
Your toxin takes its time to settle in
When you said how much my skin reminded you of home
Your tongue seemed to numb my sins

I laid down
All my walls so you could lay here next to me
I know now

Too much of anything is poison
And it's laced upon your lips
But the cure is in the venom
So I keep on coming back
My soul is stained with your poison

Your lips are poison baby
Your love is poison baby
Your lips are poison baby and I love the way it hurts, oh
Your lips are poison baby
Your love is poison baby
Your lips are poison and I swear I'll never learn
