[Intro – ambient synth pad, heartbeat kick, whispered vocals]
I think I’m going numb.
My heart’s still racing…
Is this how it ends?
---
[Verse 1 – low pulsing bass, soft electric piano]
I think I’m going numb,
My brain overcome
By the rhythm of my heart.
I think I’m going dumb—
Baby, shoot me up
With your chemical love.
I can’t get enough.
---
[Pre-Chorus – vocal layering, subtle strings swelling]
Am I infected or infatuated?
Tried to spit you out…
But I’m dancing to the rhythm of your tongue.
Your kiss is running in my veins…
---
[Chorus – smooth synth layers, clean beat drop, layered harmonies]
I’m the poison in your veins,
A symbiotic twist of chains.
I’m the poison in your oxygen—
You gasp… no cure, no zen.
Loving me’s a slow death,
I seep through your skin.
I’m not the wound…
I’m the rot within.
---
[Verse 2 – soft guitar plucks, vocal close-up, minimal drums]
You held me like a cure,
But I was something worse.
Didn’t you feel it—
How I made you thirst?
Your pulse don’t lie.
I know I’m still inside.
---
[Pre-Chorus – more vocal harmony, soft percussion swelling]
Am I desire or a disease?
You let me in—
Now I live where your silence breathes.
I trace your body when you sleep…
---
[Chorus – full vocal stack, elegant synths, emotional delivery]
I’m the poison in your veins,
A symbiotic twist of chains.
I’m the poison in your oxygen—
You gasp… no cure, no zen.
Loving me’s a slow death,
I seep through your skin.
I’m not the wound…
I’m the rot within.
---
[Bridge – stripped to piano + vocal, strings fade in subtly]
I’m the love you taste on razor blades.
You scream my name—then beg me stay.
You wanted heaven…
But I pull you through hell.
You knew I was toxic—
But I wear it so well.
---
[Final Chorus – softer tone, swelling strings, intimate vocal]
I’m the poison in your veins,
A symbiotic twist of chains.
I’m the poison in your oxygen—
You gasp… no cure, no zen.
Loving me’s a slow death,
I seep through your skin.
I’m not the wound…
I’m the rot within.
---
[Post-Chorus – ambient fade, distant vocal echo]
I’m the poison… in your veins.
I’m the poison… and you let me in.
---
[Outro – soft piano, warm pads, vocal on verge of breaking]
I swear, I was just trying to survive…
But I destroy everything I kiss.
It wasn’t love.
It was always this.
I’ve been the poison all along.
