Poison in My Mouth

[Intro]
Two years clean, clear mind, bright dawn
No more poison running through my veins

[Verse 1]
I remember the nights that felt so numb
Swallowed the lies, now I see what they become
Taste of regret, twisting in my mouth
A bitter reminder of the darkest routes

[Pre-Chorus]
But I’ve risen above, I’m feeling alive
No more shadows, no need to hide
Thought I’d forget, but it’s still around
Echoes of the past that I’ve unwound

[Chorus]
I drank that poison, now I’m free
What on earth was I thinking of, can’t you see?
Every sip, a virus in disguise
Now I’m washed clean, and I realize
The aftermath still haunts my mind
Anxiety and panic, hard to unwind
But I’m stronger, I stand tall
I’ve broken the chains, I’ve conquered it all

[Bridge]
Sharpened eyes, clearer days
No more pain, I’ve found my way
Though the ghosts still whisper near
I’ve got courage, I’ve got no fear

(Breakdown) 
DROP IT! 

[Pre-Chorus]
But I’ve risen above, I’m feeling alive
No more shadows, no need to hide
Thought I’d forget, but it’s still around
Echoes of the past that I’ve unwound

[Chorus]
I drank that poison, now I’m free
What on earth was I thinking of, can’t you see?
Every sip, a virus in disguise
Now I’m washed clean, and I realize
The aftermath still haunts my mind
Anxiety and panic, hard to unwind
But I’m stronger, I stand tall
I’ve broken the chains, I’ve conquered it all


[Outro]
Two years sober, still I fight
Messengers of darkness, out of sight
Taste of poison, now just a word
A lesson learned, a voice unheard
