The house was pretty and the yard was wide |
|
And I felt strong with you at my side |
|
Your eyes at night had a beautiful glowing in them |
|
And I knew in my heart just what was growing in them |
|
Ah, but you made me drink poison |
|
It felt smooth running down my throat |
|
I love you, and you made me drink poison |
|
It was cool and smooth and sweet |
|
Do you remember? |
|
We had a bed of daisies thriving in the yard |
|
And I quit my job, so I could hold you all the time |
|
I tried to stop the thing metastasizing in us |
|
But in the warm, slow evening |
|
I could feel it rising in us |
|
Ah, and you made me drink poison |
|
It felt so smooth, sliding down my throat |
|
I love you so much, and you made me drink poison |
|
It was cool and smooth and sweet and cool |
|
And smooth and sweet and cool and smooth |
