Venom in my Veins

You taste like danger… and I’m starving.

Drip… drip… I feel you hit my blood…

---

Taste like danger on my tongue,

You pull me in, I come undone.

Every kiss a little crime,

You’re the needle in my mind.

Silhouettes in flashing lights,

Your shadow dances through my nights.

Toxic dreams I can’t erase,

You’re the ache I chase.

---

You got me crawling, I can’t escape,

Sweet like sin, I can’t behave.

Every touch ignites the flame,

I’m addicted to your name.

[snare build, riser, whispered vocal layers] “can’t escape... won’t behave”

---

Venom in my veins (oh-oh),

Running through my pain (oh-oh),

I’m alive when I’m insane,

You’re the venom in my veins.

[Drop hit – distorted bass growl, chopped vocal] “venom / venom / venom”

---

[Instrumental – heavy side-chained bass, vocal stabs:] “venom… in my veins…”

---

Heartbeats glitch in black and white,

You love me wrong, I love the fight.

You’re the ghost inside my bed,

Kiss me once, I’ll play dead.

Crimson moonlight on your skin,

Pull me closer, drag me in.

---

I don’t care if it’s real or fake,

Every breath’s another break.

Every high’s a sweet decay,

Still I beg you, make me stay.

---

Venom in my veins (oh-oh),

Running through my pain (oh-oh),

You’re the drug I can’t contain,

You’re the venom in my veins.

---

I don’t wanna heal, I just wanna feel,

Poison’s real — and I need the thrill.

Let it burn, let it take control,

You’re the sickness in my soul.

---

Venom in my veins (oh-oh),

Running through my pain (oh-oh),

I’m alive when I’m insane,

You’re the venom in my veins.

Venom in my veins…

[Last drop: full-power bass, glitchy vocal chops, cymbal crashes, echoing] “venom… venom… venom…”

---

Drip… drip…

You never leave my blood.
