You're snatching every bit of strength
That I'm gon' need to push off the inevitable
And it's a heart-breaking situation
I'm up in but I can't control
[Chorus]
You're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time
You're just like poison
And I simply don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?
I'm not certain of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cuz the remedy is base in you,
I don't need it but I do
You're just like poison
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie
Kiss me one more time before I die
[Verse 2]
You ain't right, take me high
Then that high, it subsides
And my body flat lines
Then you do to revive
Wait, wait, wait, I'm alive
But how long will it last?
Will it all come crashing down?
How many doses am I needin' now?
What's the prognosis, will you be around?
Or am I but another victim of an assassin that broke my heart down?
[Chorus]
Baby, you're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time
You're just like poison
And I simply don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?
I'm not certain of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cuz the remedy is base in you,
I don't need it but I do
You're just like poison
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie
Kiss me one more time before I die
[Verse 3]
It's simply not my body (oh),
It's my head you don't recognize how many times I told myself this can't do (can't do)
And that I don't want you
(No, I don't ask you, no)
It's so unfair
That I feel myself right back in your care
And what's right is that when you're not always there (there, there)
You're no sound for my health, my health
You're just like poison
You're just like poison
[Chorus]
You're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time
You're just like poison
And I simply don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?
I'm not certain of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cuz the remedy is base in you,
I don't need it but I do
You're just like poison
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie
Baby, kiss me one more time
You're just like poison
Slowly moving through my system breaking all of my defenses with time
You're just like poison
And I simply don't get it
How could something so deadly feel so right?
I'm not certain of what to do
It's a catch twenty-two
'Cuz the remedy is base in you,
I don't wanna do
You're just like poison
I'm addicted, I can't lie
Kiss me one more time
