I know you’re not good, Yet I always came back, Drunk on your poisonous beauty. Love might be fogging up my eyes, A curse or a blessing–I’ll never know, For I’m high on your beauty. You wield an invisible knife in my heart, Twisting it while feeding me pain killers, But the pain lingers, as the blood pours, It’s like taking pills–some help, some don’t, I can’t decide if yours do or not, They twist my mind, but which way does the pillar fall? I can’t make a valid conclusion while I’m on them, If you wanted to twist my mind you won, For you got me talking to a shadow on the wall. Your beauty got me hallucinating, Thinking I could reach the stars, Yet you left in the void of space.

Poisonous Beauty
I know you’re not good, Yet I always came back, Drunk on your poisonous beauty. Love might be fogging up my eyes, A curse or a blessing–I’ll never know, For I’m high on your beauty. You wield an invisible knife in my heart, Twisting it while feeding me pain killers, But the pain lingers, as the blood pours, It’s like taking pills–some help, some don’t, I can’t decide if yours do or not, They twist my mind, but which way does the pillar fall? I can’t make a valid conclusion while I’m on them, If you wanted to twist my mind you won, For you got me talking to a shadow on the wall. Your beauty got me hallucinating, Thinking I could reach the stars, Yet you left in the void of space.
Just one of my older ones. Hope you enjoy :)
