Dave Mustaine - Poison Was the Cure lyrics

I miss the warm embrace I felt First time you touched me Secure and safe in open arms I should have known you'd crush me A snake you were when we met I loved you anyway Pulling out your poisonous fangs The venom never goes away Serpent swims free in my blood Dragons sleeping in my veins Jackyl speaking with my tongue Roach egg laying in my brain Once stalked beneath your shadow Sleepwalking to the gallows I'm the sun that beats your brow in Till I finally threw the towel in Never knowing if I'd wake up In a whirlpool, got redundant My brain was just some driftwood In a cesspool I became dead From a rock star to a desk fool Was my destiny, someone said Love's a tide pool Taste the waters, life's abundant Taste me
