Long Time Ago, I Had A Healthy Dose Of You
Cured What Ailed Me, And Proved To Be A Vaccine
But I Got Hooked, When I Wasn't Getting Hooked Up
Huddled In Dark Corners, I Sat Pensive And Alone
I Had Been A Caricature Of A Young Man In Love
My Greedy Pupils Enlarged To Take In Your Supposed Light
But You Were Just A Constant Eclipse, An Eternal Midnight
Deteriorating, I Had To Steal Away
But You've Tracked Me Down, Knowing What Makes Me Weak

Taken Twice, You're Poison
Your Addicts Never Know It
You Weren't Around When I Needed You The Most
You Were Not What This Life Hoped For

Ev'ry Thrust Of Your Ven'mous Tongue Down My Throat
Was Just Another Lie On Which You Wished Me To Choke
Won't Say I Didn't Enjoy It While It Lasted
But While You Moved On, My Head Was In My Hands
Slumped Against A Locked Door, The Outside World's Distant
The Candle's Fading; So Too Is My Consciousness
Till The Next Grey Morning, Where Our Glances Interlocked
As If On Cue, Two Sets Of Lips Mimicked Us
But I Was Still Free To Make My Scream

Taken Twice, You're Poison
Your Addicts Never Know It
You Weren't Around When I Needed You The Most
You Are Not What This Life Hoped For

The Valley I Explored As The Palm Of Your Hand
Is Now The Canyon From Which I Now Must Climb
The Valley I Mapped Out As The Small Of Your Back
Is Now The Canyon In Which I'm Drownin'

I'm Drownin'
I'm Drownin'
And The River's Acid!
And The River's Acid!

Taken Twice, You're Poison
Your Addicts Never Know It
You Weren't Around When I Needed You The Most 
You Are Not What This Life Hoped For

Leave Me Alone
I've Found My Antedote
