"Drink the wine, my darling" you said "Take your time, and consume all of it" But the roses Were only to drain my inspiration The promises Were spoiled before they left your lips and I breathe you in again Just to feel you Underneath my skin Holding on to The sweet escape Is always laced with a Familiar taste Of poison I tell myself That you're no good for me I wish you well (wish you well) But desire never leaves I could fight this 'til the end But maybe I don't wanna win I breathe you in again Just to feel you Underneath my skin Holding on to The sweet escape Is always laced with a Familiar taste of poison I don't wanna be saved I don't wanna be sober I want you on my mind In my dreams Behind these eyes And I won't wake up No, not this time I breathe you in again Just to feel you Underneath my skin Holding on to The sweet escape Is always laced with a Familiar taste of poison A familiar taste of poison A familiar taste Of poison
