[Hook] There's no injection for this The aching in your lungs So bite down Even vipers mind the venom lacing their tongues
[Verse 1] Puncture wounds and almost no color in our skin And we smashed every vial of the cure Aren't we vicious when we're backed against the wall? And I wish you just passed me by when we went about our ways Instead of this bitter exchange of poisonous words
[Hook]
[Bridge - x2] If the sting would tear you, tear you inside out Wouldn't it be worth just holding it in, holding it inside?
[Verse 2] Revenge should be honey on our tongues But it's turned to ash in our mouths Empty out the hives of our honeycomb lungs Don't we all want to be left alone? [x2]
