Taste the Poison

It's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
It's the fall from glory
That makes you feel

Place your needle to the record, stab it down
It feels good to be the one to break the skin
So run with me now, look at me now
You're face down, tell yourself you're happy once again
Right now you need this more than anything
But it's never enough, it's never enough for you

And it's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
It's the fall from glory
That makes you feel alive

And you know the hardest truth can flow like water now
Break down, the moment that it touches your mouth
So place your lips against the bottle, take it down
It feels good to lose control of everything
"But I wasn't myself, I wasn't myself", she said

And it's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
It's the fall from glory
That makes you feel alive

And it's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
But it's not what you wanted

Can anyone feel? Can anyone see?
Can anyone taste the poison
That we need, that we need?

So place your needle to the record, stab it down
It feels good to be the one to break the skin
Now you're face down, well this is what you wanted
This is what you wanted, this is what you wanted
And I know, but we've lost control
Here we go

Can anyone feel? Can anyone see?
Can anyone taste the poison that we need?
Can anyone feel? Can anyone see?
Can anyone taste the poison that we need
That we need, that we need, that we need?
