Sweetest Poison

Cut me wide open, drain me of all there is to give
Store me away to the barrel to writhe with the sewage
Living with lies, falsehood, and deceptions
I am all of this, but I’ve realized
That my bones were created from this
Forced down my throat, my ears, my eyes
It’s too much, it’s far too much,
Fooled into thinking I was the only one
In my darkest time, I lust for clarity
Split between sights unseen and thoughts in between
I’m letting go, I’m starting over
Breathe it in like the sweetest poison
Like the sweetest poison
I’m letting go, I’m starting over
To clear my name and walk my own path
I’m on my own, and now I’m closer
To finding a way to bring me back
These colors that I see shining the brightest
Were all stained by the hands of the shameless
In one final purge, dispose of your affliction
To mend what’s left and achieve what you envision
Regrowth, regeneration
Developed in negative tension
In the midst of all my hopes held in suspension
As my former husk crumbles to dust
I ready my mind and I reassemble
I trust that bliss won’t arrive without resistance
But I know we are all capable of greatness
In my darkest time, I lust for clarity
Split between sights unseen and thoughts in between
I’m letting go, I’m starting over
Breathe it in like the sweetest poison
Regrowth, regeneration
Developed in negative tension
In the midst of all my hopes held in suspension
I’m letting go, I’m starting over
To clear my name and walk my own path
I’m on my own, and now I’m closer
To finding a way to bring me back
