Poison

How is it you numb your pain
Keep you from going insane
A couple shots right through your veins
So one don't end up in your brain
When you have thoughts you can't quite shake
When nothing can quite cure your aches
Hurt from smiles that you've faked
Because your past kept you awake
Life's a nightmare, can't wake up
Can't shake the thoughts that go corrupt
I need distractions to disrupt
All racing thoughts are building up
The tension's building past the cap
There's only so tight you can wrap
A ticking bomb that's bout to zap
And leave you with a stinging slap

I want that slow and subtle death
I smell your vices on your breath
We need to make it through today
And we each have a different way
Some are harmless, some will burn
Some people will never learn
The consequences overlooked
All of a sudden, I got hooked

Gimme the poison, down it quick
I need it now, hit me like a brick
Hurry along, I need to get wrecked
Quit fucking around, quit fucking around

Inject
Ingest
Infect
Poison me

Damaged is one way to say
That my mind's filled with my decay
Look in my eyes, look for my soul
I guarantee what's left ain't whole
Breathing now a painful chore
It wasn't quite this bad before
The demons cook and feed me bait
When there's no clean spot on my plate
We say our wicked ways can't change
When did our lives turn so deranged
Why are we blind to what's so clear
The cure to change is in the mirror
I point a finger at their flaws
They refuse that they are the cause
Not one player makes a move
What's left to do? Sink in this groove

I want that slow and subtle death
I smell your vices on your breath
We need to make it through today
And we each have a different way
Some are harmless, some will burn
Some people will never learn
The consequences overlooked
All of a sudden, I got hooked

Gimme the poison, down it quick
I need it now, hit me like a brick
Hurry along, I need to get wrecked
Quit fucking around, quit fucking around

Inject
Ingest
Infect
Poison me
Inject
Ingest
Infect
Poison me

I don't want to feel a thing
I don't care what trouble brings
Fuck all of those side effects
My symptoms are beyond complex
I need escape, I pick my vice
In hopes that I can sleep tonight
If it kills me, I can't control
Since death is in fact end point goal
Poison me, make my brain numb
I see myself lower than scum
I am not worthy of this life
So I get lost under this knife
A pill, a drink, it's all the same
'Cuz everyone forgot my name
I'm lost and haven't found my place
Because I'm such a waste of space
I need a plan, I need to go
I need it now, this can't be slow
I want to feel each ounce of pain
Pure hurt runs through my every vein
My life is like a horror show
My choice is live and die alone
Or take my death, make it my own
