Poison

I can’t stand the poison

Burning through my veins

I can’t stand the pain

But just give me a reason to stay

I can’t stand your love

It just hurts too much

And the poison will stay

My vision will gray

And you face will gaze

As I fall into the poison haze

I know I need

To get out now

But it’s just not easy

And I don’t know how

I can’t stand your love

It just hurts too much

And the poison will stay

My vision will gray

And you face will gaze

As I fall into the poison haze

And why can’t I just go away

‘Cause I can’t stand the pain

I can’t wake from this nightmare

It’s only right when I’m asleep

I’ll settle for a little less than fair

But, my poison, I will keep

I can’t stand your love

It just hurts too much

And the poison will stay

My vision will gray

And you face will gaze

As I fall into the poison haze

I can’t stand your love

It just hurts too much

And the poison will stay

My vision will gray

And you face will gaze

As I fall into the poison haze

I can’t stand your pain or poison

I was just a toy, then

I can feel your poison

Through my veins, intent to destroy them

I can feel my poison
