Poison

So you say this is love
Well, I think that it's poison
It blackens my blood
And steals my breath
No, it don't seem as such
'Cause I've rather enjoyed you
But I don't think it's worth it
In the end

So you call this a dance
Well, I think it's a boxing match
And you had the upper hand
I died to give you a ring
I'd lay down on this mat
If I thought we had a fighting chance
For keeping our pride and keeping the peace

So do, do you love me?
'Cause I don't wanna hear it
It will only make things worse
You are so lovely
Like a dagger draped in jewelry
The closer you get to my heart, the more it hurts

Don't wanna hear it from your lips
Don't wanna see it in your eyes
Don't wanna feel it in your kiss
Your spit, it tastes like wine
And it clouds my judgement
It will steal my life
If I don't make this right
If I don't get out tonight

So do, do you love me?
'Cause I don't wanna hear it
It will only make things worse
You are so lovely
Like a dagger draped in jewelry
The closer you get to my heart, the more it hurts

And it's right there in your eyes
You see the warning signs too
But you would rather do nothing
And I don't think it's right
To stay here when you're not mine
Someone out there is losing out on loving you

So do, do you love me?
Cause I don't wanna hear it
It will only make things worse
You are so lovely
Like a dagger draped in jewelry
The closer you get to my heart the more it hurts

So do, do you love me?
Cause I don't wanna hear it
It will only make things worse
Oh, you are so lovely
Like a dagger draped in jewelry
The closer you get to my heart, the more it hurts
Still the closer you get, the more I think you're worth it
