Poison 4

I start to fly, just thinkin’ of you,

But then I crash, and you know it’s true,

I read those lines, they cut like poison,

My heart’s too heavy, can’t find no reason.

Indifference? Nah, I don’t deserve,

You made my name a forbidden word,

But two like us, with love so strange,

We fight, we burn, but we never change.

So tell me why, babe,

You ain’t by my side.

You’re my poison,

Yeah! Poison, poison,

Poiiiii-sonnnn…

And you know what?

This ain’t right,

Hurting each other night after night,

It will never heal the pain… no.

And you know what?

This won’t last,

If we don’t talk, we’re fading fast,

I drift away and think… oh oh oh,

Uh oh, uh oh…

---

You blocked me out, but I’m still near,

That voice inside won’t disappear,

It whispers: “Girl, let him gooo,”

It pleads: “To Rome, don’t showwww.”

But I know you, yeah, your glass disguise,

Shatters down when I meet your eyes,

Still, I turn away, respect your choice,

No more knocking, no more voice.

I dropped my pride a thousand times,

While you were in Livorno with lies,

But no one’s perfect, and that’s the deal,

And deep inside, you know it’s real.

You’re my poison,

Yeah! Poison, poison,

Poiiiii-sonnnn…

And you know what?

This ain’t right,

Hurting each other night after night,

It will never heal the pain… no.

And you know what?

This won’t last,

If we don’t talk, we’re fading fast,

I drift away and think… oh oh oh,

Uh oh, uh oh…

The truth, you see,

Is you meant the world to me,

I chose you once, I’d do it again,

Now I’m choking on what remains.

I let it goooo,

‘Cause it hurt me sooo…

You’re my poison,

Yeah! Poison, poison,

Poiiiii-sonnnn…

And you know what?

This ain’t right,

Hurting each other night after night,

It will never heal the pain… no.

And you know what?

This won’t last,

If we don’t talk, we’re fading fast,

I drift away and think… oh oh oh,

Uh oh, uh oh…

It’s our fault, not only mine,

Stop the stories, stop the lies,

Let’s talk it out just one more time,

Could be the last chance in our lives.
