Poison

[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK INTRO] (Intro) [(Opens with a moody, minor-key nylon-string guitar run. Percussive claps enter with a syncopated, tense rhythm. The deep, punchy bass hits hard on the first beat.)] (Verse 1) [(Lead vocal enters with a sexy, slightly raspy tone and a noticeable echo. Oscillating synths create a feeling of unease.)] You're a warning sign in a ruby dress (Echo: dress... dress...) A beautiful and intoxicating mess And I know it, a sweet mistake But I keep coming back for more, my love (Pre-Chorus) [(Airy, haunting harmonies enter. The simmering percussion builds, creating a sense of urgency.)] My mind is screaming that I have to run Before the damage is already done My head says "no" But my body betrayed me... (Chorus) [(Dramatic bass drop into a powerful slap house groove. Vocal chops are sharp and rhythmic.)] Your love is POISON, on my lips (Vocal Chop: Ve-ne-ne-no) A poison that I drink with every kiss My love you are poisin, a sweet decay And I know I'll never ever get away It's a beautiful lie, a fire in my veins The only thing that silences the pains... of your poison... (Breakdown) [(Music cuts to a single, melancholic nylon guitar chord. Percussion is a low, simmering heartbeat. Vocals are breathy, desperate whispers.)] (Female whisper): One more kiss... (Male whisper): Don't stop... not yet... (Female whisper): It's all I ask... (Male whisper): I know I'll regret... (Climax / Final Chorus) [(A filtered snare roll builds fast. The full beat and bass CRASH back in, with intense energy. The vocals are a passionate, overwrought belt.)] YOUR LOVE IS POISON, ON MY LIPS! A POISON THAT I DRINK WITH EVERY KISS! A SWEET DECAY! (Ad-lib: ¡Más, quiero más!) AND I KNOW I'LL NEVER EVER GET AWAY! ... (and so on) [FADE]
