The Poison

I kissed the hands of death, saw the devil stand before this door,

Another soldier fallen succumbed by this poison that we've all inhaled.

Bitches collapse, soldiers march on!

(Chorus 1)

We cough on the resolve of a country's back,

We die in the fields we aren't welcomed,

A gas so deadly, thicker than hells gates.

It brings me back to life as the poison takes on my life.

(Verse 2)

We do this to live the golden life,

House, kids, picket fence, and the goddamn dog.

Too bad we'll never know that life because we'll be dead before we'll ever know it.

I feel my body start to decay but I just know that I can't stay.

(Chorus 2)

We cough on the resolve of a country's back,

We die in the fields we aren't welcomed,

A gas so deadly, thicker than hells gates.

It brings me back to life as the poison takes on my life.

(Bridge)

(Guitar solo)

(Verse 3)

My body breaks as it sweats, blood pouring down my nails, blood runs and drains my eyes, can't hear a damn thing. I'm almost home but out of time as the blood fills my boots I know I've made it home....

(Outro)

We cough on the resolve of a country's back,

We die in the fields we aren't welcomed,

A gas so deadly, thicker than hells gates.

It brings me back to life as the poison takes on my life.
