Poison! Lyrics

I’ll hold my tongue from idle speech to keep my mind fed

Did I trade intent for futile means in the process?

I guess there’s a whole in the bottom of my head my sense

has fallen out



I’ve seen the sickness reside in the belly of the

righteous

A disease that trained a gluttonous eye to feast upon the

wicked

And I could pretend that it won’t but it’ll be my ruin

too



(I give it all)

Will you watch me drown in a pool of my thickening blood?

My rigid limbs sprawl around. I fear that I’m going down.

Stung by the incessant drone of some siren calling me

out.

Oh dear I heard the sound

Now I’m hung like an overcoat with some poison fruit in

my mouth.

Oh god, It’s dragging me down

Louder and louder still, spinning looms by which I am

bound



This wasn’t right, but it’s what I needed

And I wouldn’t lie, to feed my indifference
