Poison Ivy
You go on a trip to a better past
When you loved a girl, and she loved you back
You can feel her skin, and the soft look in her eyes
Brightens up your day, though 5 years have gone by
Locked inside a cage, your mind begins to fade
But could you get out even with the key?
You got the darting eyes and there's spiders on your face
They're hiding someone your scared to embrace
So comeback to reality
You wish you could escape
You cannot outrun your thoughts
They're stuck to you like tape
Distorted memories
Oh they itch like poison ivy
But when the birds start chirping and the spring air blows
If you listen closely maybe then you'll know
If life was your play, you'd play the victim
Cuz your addicted to a drug called sympathy
You slowly sabotage each one of your friends
They trip from their guilt, just like how I did
So comeback to reality
You wish you could escape
You cannot outrun your thoughts
They're stuck to you like tape
Distorted memories
Oh they itch like poison ivy
But when the birds start chirping and the spring air blows
If you listen closely maybe then, maybe then you'll know
So comeback to reality
You wish you could escape
You cannot outrun your thoughts
They're stuck to you like tape
Distorted memories
They itch like poison ivy
But when the birds start chirping and the spring air blows
If you listen closely maybe then, maybe then you'll know
When you loved a girl, and she loved you back
You can feel her skin, and the soft look in her eyes
Brightens up your day, though 5 years have gone by
Locked inside a cage, your mind begins to fade
But could you get out even with the key?
You got the darting eyes and there's spiders on your face
They're hiding someone your scared to embrace
So comeback to reality
You wish you could escape
You cannot outrun your thoughts
They're stuck to you like tape
Distorted memories
Oh they itch like poison ivy
But when the birds start chirping and the spring air blows
If you listen closely maybe then you'll know
If life was your play, you'd play the victim
Cuz your addicted to a drug called sympathy
You slowly sabotage each one of your friends
They trip from their guilt, just like how I did
So comeback to reality
You wish you could escape
You cannot outrun your thoughts
They're stuck to you like tape
Distorted memories
Oh they itch like poison ivy
But when the birds start chirping and the spring air blows
If you listen closely maybe then, maybe then you'll know
So comeback to reality
You wish you could escape
You cannot outrun your thoughts
They're stuck to you like tape
Distorted memories
They itch like poison ivy
But when the birds start chirping and the spring air blows
If you listen closely maybe then, maybe then you'll know
