Poison


I am poison

It runs through my veins

Makes me crazy

That a part of me can't go away

 

What day what day

Is it

Why can't I why can't I

Make it go away 

 

Poison is in me

It taints you 

In my arms

I make you poison too

 

Where are we where are we

Right now 

The landscape is unfamiliar as I am

To myself 

 

Why why why 

Do you and I 

Cry poison from our eyes

 

I am poison 

You are poison

It is truely simple

Together

 

We are poison
