Why do I lie here like this

Paralyzed by the truth in your kiss

You think that I don't know there's someone else

I should get up and go, but I'm not feeling well



Chorus:

There's a slow poison inside of me

A slow poison, killing me by degrees

It's a strong potion, love and jealousy



Don't tell me it's all in my mind

I ain't gonna fall for that this time

I'm not really holding on, can't you see?

It's just when I'm feeling strong

Something brings me to my knees



Repeat Chorus



Please, please save me, say you don't love me

Sometimes the venom is the only remedy
