poison spills from your throat
the poison you call words, and the poison i call liesyou call me a vulture, waiting around for this love to die.
but so what? who cares? you ruined it the moment you lied to mewhy couldn't you tell the truth?
why couldn't you be honest?
is it because your untrue heart can't process doing anything sincere for anybody else?you're selfish
you hurt me but i'll move on
you've made me forget how to love but i'll learn again
i refuse to let you think you've wonyou may have poisoned me
but I will recover
