You're the taste of sin sweet candy drops

Left to linger on my tongue

You're the one my fingers dial

When I am hungry for some fun

I toss and turn at night, cuz I'll be damned

Letting this venous course run

It's your sweet addictive poison

Worse than any street drug known

And I let my guard down and now

It's my heart and thought you own

I couldn't read your true intention

I was distracted by your stare

And as I leaned into your luring spell

I was left to linger there

You made a mad dash for the door

Prying my fingers from your hair

Just cuz I let my guard down and now

It's my heart and thoughts you own

Worse than any street drug known

And I can't even find my way back home

I want to blame you but I can't

Because I knew

What you could do; it was no surprise

I was warned- by your piercing eyes

Your chilly touch, your voice, a hush

When you pressed your sweet, cold kiss on me

I should have known

I should have gone home

But I cant find an exit out of here

If only I, wasn't so eager to die

For a love that wasn't there...

So I'm starting over tonight

Desperate to fight off your effects

Telling myself over and over

Charm can't replace the absence of respect

But it's hard to listen to myself

With your kisses on my neck

Now it's my turn to walk away

And curse the day

I met your spell-bounding stare

Cuz no sin can taste so sweet

If it'll only leave me bare

If you're the sweet, venomous poison

I'll become immune with time and prayer.
