POISON IS PRETTY

LYRICS:

Verse One
Amber and gold, familiar and warm,
That bright constellation is your lucky charm,
Soon you’re driftin’ at sea with your sad memories,
Now there’s not a star in the sky to light your way home.

Chorus
When the poison is pretty, and the pull is too strong,
And you’ve got no resistance, you won’t last for long,
You’ll take on the world and lay it to waste,
When the poison is pretty and you just need a taste.

Verse Two
She looks like an angel, sent down here just for you,
And she’s got the hunger, it’s the same one as you,
So you go for the bait, check your bags at the gate, but
She’s just another detector you’ll never get through.

Chorus
When the poison is pretty, and the pull is too strong,
And you’ve got no resistance, you won’t last for long,
You’ll take on the world and lay it to waste,
When the poison is pretty and you just need a taste.

Now you’re driftin’ at sea, with your sad memories,
And there’s not a star in the sky to light your way home.

Final Chorus
When the poison is pretty, and the pull is too strong,
And you’ve got no resistance, you won’t last for long,
You’ll take on the world and lay it to waste,
When the poison is pretty and you just need a taste,
When the poison is pretty and you just need a taste.
