(Yeah)

(Uh huh)

Hey

Something spreading within me

Pulling me in so sweet

Sweet poison in my blood veins

Saving me now I’m

Dying in your arms

Feeling like on (a) cloud

Spreading through my veins, it is the taste of your

Sweet venom

Yeah all I need is your poison

Take me to a new world

So alive, bring doom to me

Sweet

Woah

Cold hands seek you

Lips call out your name

I’ll gladly sacrifice myself for you

Sacrifice myself

Take my life now I’m

Dying in your arms

Feeling like on (a) cloud

Spreading through my veins, it is the taste of your

Sweet venom

Yeah all I need is your poison

Take me to a new world

So alive, bring doom to me

Sweet

(Sweet venom)

Sweet venom

Sweet venom

I’ll give up eternity right now

Right now to me only the taste of your

Sweet venom

Yeah all I need is your poison

Take me to a new world

So alive, bring doom to me

Sweet
