I still remember the contempt in your voice
And how you looked at me like I had a choice
You knew damn well who dragged me there
You know more than me still
About this nasty, bloody affair
It’s easy for you to label me a snake
Because I snap when life throws more than I can take
And yeah, my lips may be venom, my tongue may be poison
But you, you burn
Like acid in my heart
Is the same story stored somewhere in both our brains?
If you told me what you know
Would I be able to bleed out
the venom that runs in my veins..?
I still remember how you betrayed me
The irony; pretended you were there to save me
And yeah, my lips may be venom, my tongue may be poison
Ice cold, I threw my heart in the toilet and flushed
But still you burn, burn like acid somewhere behind my rib cage
Are we both held by the same kind of chains?
If I erase my memory one more time, if I cut to the bone
Would I be able to bleed out
the venom that runs in my veins..?
So you think I’m like a snake
Because I snap when they shed my skin
And put my head on a stake
Did you forget that when they come for you
You just crumble down and break..?
Call me snake, call me anything
I was never two-faced like you, I was never this kind of fake
Is there any part of you that I loved, that still remains?
If I look into your eyes, if I stare into whatever is left of your soul
Is there any part of it that still remains??
If I cut all the way to the bone, would I be able to bleed out
the venom that runs in my veins
You, it’s still you
Holding on tight to the reins
You, it’s still you
The one holding me in chains
You, it’s still you
Burning like acid, like venom in my veins
You are the venom in my veins
