pretty poison Lyrics

pretty poison - Nessa Barrett

...

I could tell the real story but I know you wouldn't listen,

I tried to tell it many times but you always go and twist it,

Nearly every morning that I cry, waking up to words that feel like knives, mmh

Swear I'm looking in the mirror but I'm seeing someone different.

Looking at you lick your lips you think you know me,

Making faces at me while you paint mine for me.

Say my name, say my name like you know its holy.

Everybody wants a taste,

But the truth is hard to chase.

Pretty poison in my mind and in my veins.

If my name is on your throat,

Your words are dead I hope you choke.

In the end I hope you know, I hope you know,

I'm in your veins like pretty poison.

You think you're kissing all my scars while you rip 'em wide open,

You sugar-coated your sharp teeth while you're preying on me broken.

You couldn't hate me more than I hate myself,

Add it to my wrist I can go to hell.

If you think you want me dead, go ahead here's a token.

Everybody wants a taste,

But the truth is hard to chase,

Pretty poison in my mind and in my veins.

If my name is on your throat,

Your words are dead I hope you choke.

But in the end I hope you know, I hope you know,

I'm in your veins like pretty poison.

I'm in your veins like pretty poison

I'm in your veins like pretty poison.
