The Poison in My Pulse

I felt you crawling underneath my skin

A slow decay that always feels like sin

You smile like heaven, but your hands burn cold

You turned my veins into roads you control

The night speaks louder when you're gone

But silence hits like loaded guns

I breathe you in, though I can't stand

The part of me you still command

I know you're poison

Still I crave the taste

I drink you slowly

Like I want the waste

I felt you crawling underneath my skin

A slow decay that always feels like sin

You smile like heaven, but your hands burn cold

You turned my veins into roads you control

The night speaks louder when you're gone

But silence hits like loaded guns

I breathe you in, though I can't stand

The part of me you still command

I know you're poison

Still I crave the taste

I drink you slowly

Like I want the waste

You're the poison in my pulse

Every beat just pulls me under

You're the ghost I can't let go

Even though you drag me lower

I've lost myself inside your flame

But without you, I'm not the same

So I burn, I break, I bleed

You're the only thing I need

I hear your voice in every static hum

A requiem that makes my silence numb

I stitch your name across my fear

Each letter carved, each scream clear

I tried to leave, I closed the door

But you're the rot inside my core

You're not a memory, you're design

You rewrote my bloodline

Cut me open, Cut me open

Cut me open, Cut me open

Cut me open, Cut me open

Cut me open, take what you want

This heart's not mine, it's yours alone

No detox, no saving grace

Just one more hit to numb this place

You're the poison in my pulse

Every beat just pulls me under

You're the ghost I can't let go

Even though you drag me lower

There's no cure, there's no release

I found my truth inside disease

And I burn, I break, I bleed,

You're the only thing I need
