Sweet Poison (headphones reccomended)

[Verse 1] I tell myself, just one more time, A little taste, I’ll be just fine. But every high brings back the fall, And I still reach, I take it all. The mirror cracks, but I don’t see, What’s left of who I used to be. The glow is fading, hands are cold, But I still crave the lie I’m told. [Chorus] Sweet poison, whisper in my veins, Give me love, then leave me drained. I swore I’d stop, but here I go, Same old fire, same old smoke. Sweet poison, pull me underground, Lift me high, then shoot me down. A hollow heart, an empty throne, Drown in flames, but call it home. [Verse 2] The nights are bright, the lights feel warm, But morning comes, the colors worn. The laughter fades, the echoes bend, And I’m alone with it again. I chase the rush, ignore the cost, Every win feels like a loss. The weight is heavy, but so light, A drowning man, but it feels right. [Chorus] Sweet poison, whisper in my veins, Give me love, then leave me drained. I swore I’d stop, but here I go, Same old fire, same old smoke. Sweet poison, pull me underground, Lift me high, then shoot me down. A hollow heart, an empty throne, Drown in flames, but call it home. [Bridge] I see the wreckage in my hands, Still, I take another chance. I know the ending, know the pain, But I still play the same old game. Maybe I was meant to burn, Maybe I don’t want to learn. [Outro] So tell me, will it ever change? Or am I meant to love this cage? A faded voice, a dying spark, A life that’s lived inside the dark. Still, I take another chance. I know the ending, know the pain, But I still play the same old game. Maybe I was meant to burn, Maybe I don’t want to learn. [Chorus] Sweet poison, whisper in my veins, Give me love, then leave me drained. I swore I’d stop, but here I go, Same old fire, same old smoke. Sweet poison, pull me underground, Lift me high, then shoot me down A hollow heart, an empty throne, Drown in flames, but call it home. [Outro] So tell me, will it ever change? Or am I meant to love this cage? A faded voice, a dying spark, A life that’s lived inside the dark.
