[Verse 1] You storm in Smell like trouble on my skin Every word a tipped syringe Every touch a little binge [Pre-Chorus] Lipstick on my flaws Teeth on all my doubts You drag your nails Down everything I’m trying to cut out [Chorus] You are poison for me But it keeps me alive Burning holes in my veins While my heart learns to drive I’m shaking I’m craving Every drop you provide You are poison for me But it keeps me alive [Verse 2] You say “breathe” And I choke on what you mean Call it love Call it disease Either way it’s what I need [Pre-Chorus] You write your name On the back of every lie I read them all Like a prayer I recite [Chorus] You are poison for me But it keeps me alive Burning holes in my veins While my heart learns to drive I’m shaking I’m craving Every drop you provide You are poison for me But it keeps me alive [Bridge] If I quit you Would I still feel anything at all? If I cleanse you Do I flatline Do I stall? [whispered vocals] I don’t want the cure I just want your bite Your damage My habit My wrong that feels right [Chorus] You are poison for me But it keeps me alive Burning holes in my veins While my heart learns to drive I’m shaking I’m craving Every drop you provide You are poison for me But it keeps me alive ALIVE!
