Antidote

You’ve got my poison in your veins
And my kiss is the only antidote
Fading fast, feeling strange
But you can’t bring yourself to pucker up
I understand your motive to maintain a modicum of self-respect
But every second thought could be a second chance
Tighten your tourniquet
We wouldn’t want to lose you
I don’t wanna lose you
Blood pressure rises you can’t seem to breathe and my tongue can’t come quick
enough
(Quick enough)
The party’s over, you got what you needed
Hit the pipe, you’re taking off
(Taking off)
I curl up and rattle, you roll lovely yelled eyes between the coughs
Call me a loser, slam the door
I’m so fucking used to being lost
And I don’t wanna lose you
I don’t wanna lose you
I don’t wanna lose you
I don’t wanna lose you
Soaking through to the sub-dermal
(Acting like everything is normal)
As peat and sour pour out the puncture wounds
Spilling drinks starved for attention
I’ll buy you another against discretion
Trust me girl we’ve got every eye in the room
You’ve got my poison in your veins and my kiss is the only antidote
(You've got my poison in your veins and my kiss is the only antidote)
I don’t wanna lose you
