No one ever thought this one would survive Helpless little child, gonna walk a drum beat behind Lock you in a dream, never let you go Never laugh or smile, oh no, not you Well, I just want to walk right out of this world 'Cause everybody has a poison heart Well, I just want to walk right out of this world 'Cause everybody has a poison heart Making friends with a homeless torn up man He just kind of smiles, well, it really shakes me up There's danger on every corner but I'm okay Walking down the street trying to forget yesterday Well, I just want to walk right out of this world 'Cause everybody has a poison heart I just want to walk right out of this world 'Cause everybody has a poison heart You know that life really takes its toll And a poet's gut reaction is to search his very soul So much damn confusion before my eyes But nothing seems to phase me and this one still survives Well, I just want to walk right out of this world 'Cause everybody has a poison heart I just want to walk right out of this world 'Cause everybody has a poison heart A poison heart, a poison heart A poison heart
