Sweet Venom

Sugar on my lips, fire in my veins
They taste my kiss and forget their chains
A gentle ruin, a velvet knife
I'm the addiction that owns their life
Every whisper bends their will
They drink my poison, they want it still
Sweet as honey, sharp as pain
They beg for more and fall again
They know the danger, they know the cost
Yet once they taste me, they're forever lost
I am Sweet Venom, soft but lethal
A holy curse, a deadly steeple
They crave my touch, they beg, they plead
And I'm the poison their souls still need
I move like silk, I strike like flame
They call my beauty but curse my name
My gaze is venom, my breath a chain
Yet still they crawl back through the pain
Every heartbeat drinks me in
A sacred ruin, a holy sin
I'm the desire they can't defend
The venom they'd choose again and again
Not gentle, not kind, but sweet and cruel
I break the wise, I drown the fool
They'll pay in blood, they'll pay in tears
And still they'll worship through the years
I am Sweet Venom, soft but lethal
A holy curse, a deadly steeple
No chain, no prayer can set them free
For sweet venom lives in me
Sweet… deadly… venom
