Gonna take a long time to get over you
Love’s poison addiction offers me no rescue
Gonna be a hard road back to where I started from
‘Cause you touched the deepest part of me and filled me
With your song
And I sang along
I believe in you and what you gotta do
But what you’re goin’ through is poison,
Poison to the two of us
Used to stand so tall
‘Til I took the fall, greatest fall of all
Was when I fell for you
Our cloudy skies held lonely forms
Your anger familiar thick as air before a storm
Now lookin’ back I know the truth was plain to see
I built my world around you ’cause I
I needed to believe
And I still believe
Time and time again we tried so hard to win
But the pleasures of a foolish paradise
Is nothing but a sin
