 Dec 2012 Liberatus

I've been smoking like I'm on fire
I've been balancing like I'm on a wire
I've been sleeping like the dead
I've been tripping over what's left unsaid

Your love is like a slap in the face
I can't stop it from turning into hate
It's the difference between medicine and poison
And I won't take it again

I've been drinking like I'm dying of thirst
I've been laughing like it doesn't hurt
I've been wearing the night like a veil
I've been trying like it's not going to fail

This love is a gun to my head
hands in the air, waiting for the end
It's the difference between medicine and poison
And I won't take it again

I can't swallow this
It's too big
I can't spit it out
I like the taste of it

My love is like a backhanded serenade
don't want to lie in the bed we've made
It's the difference between medicine and poison
And I won't take it again
