Sweet Poison

Let me tell you a little ‘bout my life
About the things I’ve done and seen
It might be a little harsh for you to grasp
But in the end you’ll feel complete
Well I tasted life’s sweet poison on my lips
That I call the Devil’s Kiss
It nearly killed me
It’s taken away everything
It’s created all this pain
All this sadness you see in my eyes

So in this messed up world
How can we fully feel alive?
But we gotta try before
Before we can finally learn how to fly.

But now I’ve become a nervous wreck
Surely a violent threat
‘Cause you always seem to push and push and push
And my head can’t take the stress
So, I’ll put this piece of glass upon my wrist
And I’ll push it until I don’t exist
Then I’ll be gone
And no one will have to deal
With my drowning eyes
Always searching through everyone’s lies

So in this messed up world
How can we fully feel alive?
But we gotta try
Before we can finally learn how to fly

So maybe I’ll try
But then here it comes again
That feeling of pure regret
Well I know there’s no second chances
So good-bye

So in this messed up world
How can we fully feel alive?
But we gotta try
Before we can finally learn how to fly
No, I don’t want to die
So it’s time to say goodbye.
