Backstab Venom

[Intro]
Poison on her lips
Silver on her tongue
Said she’d die for me
Guess she meant I’m the one
[Verse 1]
Cold coil on my wrist
Thought it was a touch
Felt teeth in my skin
Didn’t feel her love that much
Whispered in my ear
“Trust me
I won’t run”
Soon as I turned around
She was loading up the gun
[Chorus]
Venom
Venom
Running through my veins (hey!)
Snake bite kiss
Now I love the pain
She drew the blade
Smiled through the crack
Steel in my chest where she stabbed my back
Venom
Venom
Can’t take it out
Every scar she gave is a broken vow
I keep crawling
Crawling through the black
With her name carved deep in my back
[Verse 2]
She wore my chains
Like a wedding dress
Left them on the floor
With the rest of her mess
Red moon over rust
Shadows in her grin
I was screaming “save us”
She was cutting deeper in
[Chorus]
Venom
Venom
Running through my veins (yeah!)
Snake bite kiss
Now I love the pain
She drew the blade
Smiled through the crack
Steel in my chest where she stabbed my back
Venom
Venom
Drowning in the sound
Every lying word is a burial ground
I keep crawling
Crawling through the black
With her name carved deep in my back
[Bridge]
Burn the shed skin
Leave it in the dirt
I’ll build my throne
Out of all this hurt (all this hurt)
Fang marks fade
But the trust won’t grow
She taught me one thing
Never turn your back that low
[Chorus]
Venom
Venom
Running through my veins
Snake bite kiss
I remember the taste
She drew the blade
Smiling at the crack
Steel in my chest where she stabbed my back
Venom
Venom
I won’t look away
Turned my open wound to a war cry today
I’m done crawling
Crawling through the black
Let the snake choke on what she can’t take back

metal, Aggressive modern metal with downtuned guitars, double-kick bursts, and male vocals that swing between snarled verses and shouted hooks. Verses stay tight and rhythmic with chugging palm-mutes; chorus opens into wide, chantable lines over a half-time groove. Add dissonant lead squeals and gang shouts on key words for that pit-starting punch.
