Taking in your Venom

     She once was considered bland

     But then you came and took her hand

     You showed her things she can't ever understand

     And you made her one of a kind

     But then you took a knife

     And you stabbed her in the back

     When you took her best friend to bed and never looked back

     And she's breaking. She's taking in the venom you keep spraying

     You took away the life you gave her, just so you could take a detour

     To her best friend

     Can't you see it?

     You're breaking her down to nothing.

     Her eyes once only held trust for you.

    Like many eyes of lovers do.

    But your eyes held only lust.

    You didn't care about her trust.
  
    And can't you see her break apart?

    You could even tell it from afar.

    She feels like she's  not worth the time.

    If she ran away, maybe things would be fine

     She can't see that love still exists

     She changed that night that she found you

     You weren't alone, she's ruined, too

     She never thought her trust could be so misplaced.

     Can't you see it?

     Oh, why can't you see it?

     You're  breaking her down to nothing.

     Her eyes once only held trust for you.

    Like many eyes of lovers do.

    But your eyes held only lust.

    You didn't care about her trust.
  
    And can't you see her break apart?

    You can even tell it from afar.

     Why do we do the things that we do?

     Why do people hurt other people so brutally?

     Why is human nature so wrong?

     Why did he do something so unforgivingly?

      You're breaking her down to nothing...

      Cause she's...

      Taking in your venom.
