poison 03:47
'poison' you were the poison that i found in my machine you were the colours that were left upon my sleeve you were the something that horrified my sleep you were the nothing that i left there in the deep there is no heaven but i pray for rock and roll it comes to tell me that it all but saved my soul i don't know jesus but i hear he's good as gold someday i'll call him, before i get too old the bad things came in and they left an awful stain the curse was lifted but you happened all the same i know the story and i can't hear it again you were the poison that i found in my machine you were the poison that i found in my machine you were the poison that i found in my machine (© 2014 brilliant fish music)
