Poison

You left me standing here
Still screamin' out your name
Never pictured the end would leave me with a tortured soul
You were my only lady
Was not reciprocated
I never thought you'd see my love
As something without meaning

Thought we could work it out
But it was all about
You taking all that you could get your hands on from the start
Guess I misunderstood
Were never any good
Yet there's a part of me that kinda hoped you'd see the light

Wish I never knew your name,
Kissed your lips
And cared for you
(Oh) Poison is the only thing
You put in everything you do

Funny how fast things change
I was your great escape
But then the tables turned, so I'm the one you're running from
You got unspoken beauty
Never afraid to lose me
Because you knew you had another man to take you home

I saw it over time
Could even read your mind
I knew it the very moment that you started to lie
Still I can't understand
How I lost my best friend
You got me feeling like it wasn't even worth your time

Wish I never knew your name,
Kissed your lips
And cared for you
(Oh) Poison is the only thing
You put in everything you do

Cause I'm done lettin' you take over my life
Even if it breaks my heart to say goodbye

I gave my soul to you
That's not an easy thing
I even felt you had me right down to my very veins
Secrets that became a part of the (daily) routine
And then I did all I could do to keep my sanity
I should have left, but yet I stayed, riding on broken wings
I guess I hoped that you would see the love I had in me
My heart can't take no more, feeling like it's gonna explode
Wonder if you were in love
Something I'll never know

When it comes to love
I won't compromise
But the pain I feel, I can't hide
