Lyrics[edit]
- I'm not above a love to cash in
- Another lover underneath those flashin' lights
- Another one of those ruthless nights
- Yeah, yeah, yeah
- I shoulda' guessed that this would happen
- I shoulda' known it when I looked in your red-hot eyes
- Spewin' all your red-hot lies
- Yeah, yeah, yeah
- What's the worst part of this hell?
- I can only blame myself
- 'Cause I know you're poison
- You're feedin' me poison
- Addicted to this feelin', I can't help but swallow
- Up your poison
- I made my choice, and
- Every night I'm livin' like there's no tomorrow
- Oh-oh, oh-oh
- Any way you want me, baby
- That's the way you got me, I'll be yours
- My story's gonna end with me dead from your poison
- I got so good at bein' untrue
- I got so good at tellin' you what you wanna hear
- I disassociate, disappear
- Yeah, yeah, yeah
- So far beyond difficult
- To resist another gulp
- Yeah, I know it's poison
- You're feedin' me poison
- I'm chokin' from the taste and I can't help but swallow
- Up your poison
- I made my choice, and
- Every night I'm wasted like there's no tomorrow
- Oh-oh, oh-oh
- Any way you want me, baby
- That's the way you got me, I'll be yours
- My story's gonna end with me dead from your poison
- Poison, I'm drownin' in poison
- I'm fillin' up my glass but it's always hollow
- Full of poison, I'm sick of the poison
- Wish I had somethin' to live for tomorrow
