lyrics

This body is bleeding
This mind, unreeling
With this pain I’m feeling
Before God I’m kneeling
This heart is broken
These lips unspoken
For he took his token
But he did not know I had awoken

Chorus -
And so you want to call me
POISON?
And so you want to judge and ostracise me?
But while you call me poison
I can still feel him inside of me
You call me poison
You’ve chosen what want to believe
So go on call me poison
But there’s still so much
That you do not see
Your anger makes you blind
To how truly unkind
And the monster that he can be.

This body feels unclean.
These things cannot be unseen
His dealings cannot be unfelt
This hand cannot be re-dealt
This heart is bleeding
These thoughts are speeding
This moment shivers down my spine
I cannot make back the lost time

Chorus -
I can still feel his racing heartbeat
You go and call me poison
You’ve chosen what you want to believe
So go on call me poison
But there’s still so much that you do not see
Your anger makes you blind
To how truly unkind
And the monster that he HAS been.

I’m not the poison. I am the poisoned
No, I’m not the poison. I am the poisoned
And I won’t be the victim
I will fight until they catch him
That’s right I’ll fight until the end
Even if that means losing you as a friend.

Chorus -
I can still feel him inside of me
You call me poison
You’ve chosen what you want to believe
So go on call me Poison
But there’s still so much that you do not see

She goes and calls me
Poison!
You want to judge and ostracise me
But while you call me poison
I can still feel his racing heartbeat
You call me poison
You’ve chosen what want to believe
So go on call me Poison
But I’m not Poison!
Poison!
