Poisons

Take a breath and a break to clear this bitter taste

That's in my mouth

To fight the fear of all we've thrown away

Still I lie here awake, with a chest so vacant

Sense of hope that our loves just latent

And I'm tired of just pretending,

We'll ever have a perfect ending

How could you give up on us, give up on me

And its killing me, how you willingly

You found somebody else along the way,

And you know that it's true

If you wouldn't suffocate your head

With what your heart misread, you'd see it all so clear

Swallow those lies, til it dies of the same old causes

Hope to God, that I cut your losses

But I swear, I'm done pretending

Its never going to be the same, again

We clench our teeth to hide the truth,

Our tongues can taste the words they fail to speak

Fail to speak the truth

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm selfish

Say that I lose the things I love

Drown it all out, leaving me breathless

Keeping me safe til I wake up

Say what you want, you did this for fun

I know what you've done

And its killing me, how you willingly

You found somebody else along the way

I know that it's true
