Poison
How could you be so cruel?
I must have been a fool
To have trusted in you so
The pricks and stings you've induced
Will you just let my heart loose?
If only for my sake
I'm disillusioned and bruised,
Shattered from my muse
Having been hurt and deceived
How could I have believed you would change?
I now see you at last
It was gone so fast,
The facade of your soul
Your wrath has spread
And your anger is being fed
By all these false reasons...
You're distorted and fake,
You don't ask, you just take
Did you ever have respect?
Or just selfishness and neglect
To spread all around
I'm shaken and confused
After all that's been accused
And I can only wonder why.
Hatred has poisoned you
As I feel it's infection too
Just don't use your venom on me
I'm exhausted with this
And I can't say I'll miss
How you've gone against all reason
And I'll never again believe in
What I once thought you were...
Your poison has infected
All those you've rejected
And I'm the sickest of them all.
So I've finally cut you out
Can you really dare to doubt?
I've made my choice
And I'm raising my voice
Against your poison...
