Lyrics

Cyanide

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.

Cap and a stem with the red wine

You ain't got friends so you're at mine

I hear you're in town for the weekend

I swear I'm not trying to get even

Couple texts from my ex, you were homies

Never took the time to get to know me

And now you're standing in the kitchen doing blow, please

You kiss me on some cyanide

It kills me, you’ll feel different when we’re eye to eye

Listen, I don’t wanna be your alibi

You feel too much, so miss me on your ride tonight

(Hey) a day goes by and I want you

Spent two nights in your bedroom

We can get high by the ocean

And I'll try to hide my emotion

Three, six, nine, you can call me

Only stay at my place when you're lonely

If you need me for the night, I gotta know, please

We'll never go back, back, back to the way things were

And I was intact, that's a fact, till you struck my nerve

Once I felt the way it hit, I was addicted to this

I would never go back, back, back, oh

You kiss me on some cyanide

It kills me, you’ll feel different when we’re eye to eye

Listen, I don’t wanna be your alibi

You feel too much, so miss me on your ride tonight

(You kiss me on some cyanide)

And I gotta know when it's over

'Cause I gotta know who's next

I'm tired of letting hope control me

Set me free

You kiss me on some cyanide

It kills me, you’ll feel different when we’re eye to eye

Listen, I don’t wanna be your alibi

You feel too much, so miss me on your ride tonight

Kiss me on some cyanide

(Kills me, you’ll feel different when we’re eye to eye)

(Kills me, you’ll feel different when we’re eye to eye)

You feel too much, so miss me on your ride tonight

Cyanide

(Still, do you feel, feel

Feel good? Real bad)
