Slow Poison Songtext
von Matraca Berg

(Matraca Berg/Jimmy Fadden)

Why do I lie here like this
Paralyzed by the truth in your kiss
You think that I don′t know there's someone else
I should get up and go, but I′m not feeling well

There's a slow poison inside of me
A slow poison, killing me by degrees
It's a strong potion, love and jealousy


Don′t tell me it′s all in my mind
I ain't gonna fall for that this time
I′m not really holding on, can't you see?
It′s just when I'm feeling strong
Something brings me to my knees

There′s a slow poison inside of me
A slow poison, killing me by degrees
It's a strong potion, love and jealousy

Please, please save me, say you don't love me
Sometimes the venom is the only remedy
