Poison
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When he's with me he forgets
All his problems all his dreads
When he feels me there's no way
To convince him it's a game
Don't you play a game
Don't you play a game with me
Don't you ever play a game
Don't you play a game with me
Don't you play a game
Don't you play a game with me
Don't you ever play a game
Don't you play a game
She's a poison
She's a poison
She's a poison
The toxic elixir
Take my sorrow
Please take my sorrow
No way
Take my sorrow
Please take my sorrow
No way
Try to find me
Try to bound me
I can take away your pain
I can please you night and day
Make your sorrow nice and blind
If you taste me you'd better die
You'd better die, you'd better die
Don't you play a game
Don't you play a game with me
Don't you ever play a game
Don't you play a game with me
Take my sorrow
Please take my sorrow
No way
Take my sorrow
Please take my sorrow
No way
I'm playing you like a toy
Take my sorrow
Please take my sorrow
I'm playing you like a toy
She plays me like a toy
She plays me like a toy
