Original Poison

getting over you poison from this wound slowly coming out lungs without any air i dont know why you cant see its impossible for me not to care getting over you poison from this wound you ask for five minutes i gave you my soul you told me to answer i left you alone cold in the dark chilled to the bone i knocked on your heart but no one was home getting over you poison poison from this wound i never asked for any help only that i could save myself you told me you loved me first i was the fool to let you in i came out of this only being ive accepted that ill never win next time ill know not to play the cards now my heart is just broken parts tears stain the deck cold grips my neck in one day i learned how to love and how to hate to halves were once whole-making us separate you made me this way the product of your profession never to return this is my last confession one day ill love again but that day is not near one day ill find the one to forever hold me near one day ill forget who you were but one day ill remember soon i will learn that life with you was the coldest december that the world has ever seen sitting here shaking crawling back in drawing poison from a wound that has long been under my skin
