The Poison Songtext
von Pedro the Lion

The poison makes it′s way through my body slowly
And to the pleasure centers of my brain
If you were here, I would admit that I'm an asshole
But now it′s over; and I can't stay sober
Thought it isn't like I tried


On the front porch, or on an airplane on vacation
Or out to dinner in a nearby town
I was so proud just to have you sitting with me
But now it′s over; and I can′t stay sober
Pour and swallow, follow one drink with another
I'll keep on until you agree to come back over
Or until there are x′s on my eyes

My old man always said that hell would have no flame
Just a front row seat to watch your true love pack her things and drive away
