I Was the Poison

from Three Sisters by THE WELL TEMPERED

/

lyrics

I always knew I would live this life
Caught up and tangled
Straining to resolve the explanation of how two eyes
Could cut right through you
Thank god for this disguise

I always felt I would never die
There was no heartbreak
No desperate, long goodbyes
How could these images in my head turn into physical touch?
Now I’m alive!

I was the poison in my own mind
Observing angles, trying to decide
Within the background I’d hoped you’d find
A piece of me that I’d somehow left behind

I felt the spirit was unrefined
Now too captivated by how you were designed
I’m pressing down into warm, soft flesh
Your rapid breathing
Oh god now I’m alive!

Barely believing
Oh god now I’m alive!

Is this real life?
I don’t believe in cosmic signs
Do you?
Oh, with time there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do to you
Is this real life?
