Venom Kiss

You pull me in like a velvet snare,
whisper lies in the midnight air.
Every touch is a loaded gun,
but I can’t stop, no, I won’t run.

Dripping sweet like cyanide,
I taste the death behind your smile.
Tangled tight in your design,
one more hit, just one more time.

Venom kiss, lace my veins,
burning slow but I love the pain.
You’re the fire, I’m the chain,
wrapped around, I can’t escape.
Venom kiss, steal my breath,
you're the fever, I’m the death.
Toxic love, no turning back,
you're the best I've ever had.

Your love’s a noose, but I crave the rope,
choke me slow with a thread of hope.
Every word is a wicked spell,
but I’d follow you straight to hell.

Dripping sweet like cyanide,
I taste the death behind your smile.
Tangled tight in your design,
one more hit, just one more time.

Venom kiss, lace my veins,
burning slow but I love the pain.
You’re the fire, I’m the chain,
wrapped around, I can’t escape.
Venom kiss, steal my breath,
you're the fever, I’m the death.
Toxic love, no turning back,
you're the best I've ever had.

I should run, I should break free,
but you’re the drug that’s killing me.
Ink-black night, your wicked game,
say my name, I’ll stay the same.

Venom kiss, lace my veins,
burning slow but I love the pain.
You’re the fire, I’m the chain,
wrapped around, I can’t escape.
Venom kiss, steal my breath,
you're the fever, I’m the death.
Toxic love, no turning back,
you're the best I've ever had.

Venom kiss… (one more taste)
Venom kiss… (no escape)
