The Poison Lyrics

You were so young
And I guess I'm old
Open your eyes
I'll keep mine closed
I prefer standing
And you take your seat
I'll be wide awake
You'll be asleep

And you'll fall down a hole
That's the one place that we both know
You take me with you if you could, but I wouldn't go
I guess that sometimes
We both lose our minds
Find a better road

I can be pensive
You can be so sure
You'll be the poison
You'll be the cure
I'm alone on the journey
I'm alive none the less
And when you do your very worst
Mmmm, it feels the best

And you'll fall down a hole
That's the one place that we both know
You take me with you if you could, but I wouldn't go
I guess that sometimes
We both lose our minds
Find a better road

Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm

And you'll fall down a hole
That's the one place in this world that we both know
You take me with you if you could
If you could I'd lose everything

(La, la, la, la, la)
Can't you see the faces melting as the sun rains from their eyes
(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay)
Who are you to keep your head with the hearts that you hand behind
Look at yourself, look in the mirror, don't you see a lie?
That you tell yourself again a thousand times
(Tell yourself again a thousand times)
And the truth that makes us laugh will make you cry
You wanna die? No

So you fall down a hole
That's the one place that we both know
You take me with you if you could, but I wouldn't go
Because sometimes we both lose our minds
Find a better road
