Drink the wine my darling, you said
Take your time and consume all of it
But the roses were only to drain my inspiration
The promises were spoiled before they left your lips and
I breathe you in again
Just to feel you underneath my skin
Holding onto the sweet escape
Is always laced with a familiar taste of poison
I tell myself that you’re no good for me
I wish you well but desire never leaves
I could fight this to the end
But maybe I don’t wanna win
I breathe you in again
Just to feel you underneath my skin
Holding onto the sweet escape
Is always laced with a familiar taste of poison
I don’t wanna be saved, I don’t wanna be sober
I want you on my mind, in my dreams
Behind these eyes that I wanna wake up
No, not this time
I breathe you in again
Just to feel you underneath my skin
Holding onto the sweet escape
Is always laced with a familiar taste of poison
A familiar taste of poison, a familiar taste of poison
