This Venom In Me

SHALLOW BREATHING
MY HEART IS A BEATING DRUMB
I CAN SEE THIS VENOM IN ME
MAKING MY LIMBS GO NUMB

ITS A LOVELY KIND OF DEATHLY POISON
I PICKED PURELY FOR PLEASURE 
FEEL IT HITTING ME IN ONE QUICK MOTION
NOTHING CAN BE COMPARED IN MEASURE 

THIS VENOM IN ME
I CAN SEE IT TRAVELING
THRU MY VEINS 
INTO MY BRAIN 

MAKING ME SLIP 
CLOSER AND CLOSER
FROM REALITY

I CAN SEE IT TRAVEL
IT MOVES COLD AS ICE
THRU MY BLOOD IT UNRAVELS
I WANNA FEEL IT TWICE

THIS VENOM IN ME
IS BECOMING MORE THAN ME
ITS CONSUMED ALL MY NEED
BECOME EVERYTHING I GREED

I CAN SEE IT TRAVELING IN ME
INTO MY VEINS INTO BRAIN.
FEELING IS BECOMING LESS ALARMING
IM BECOMING INSANE IM NOT SORRY.

THIS VENOM HAS NOW CONSUMED ME
ALL THAT I WAS IS HISTORY 
I AM THIS MONSTER IVE CREATED 
FOR THIS IS WHAT MY FATE IS

MY BRAIN BELONGS TO THIS VENOMOUS KISS
NOTHING CAN HELP THIS POISON IN ME
ITS BECOME WHAT I AM NOW . YES THIS
THIS IS ME A POISONED PERSON WHO WILL ALWAYS BE.

If u think this is too strong you should hear my poetry about killing them all very slowly with my cold blade and how they didn't even know me and Im the sexy bitch homie no u don't know me no names no games ill throw thee with ya should bbe talented ass but u will never be so sit back and watch slowly as I destroy you in words that wish they owned me. But my blade entered slowly. Blood flowing red the only color that knows me. Too strong and loud for ya homie.
