If there's a tear on my face
It makes me shiver to the bone
It shakes me, babe
It's just a heartache that got caught in my eye
And you know I never cry, I never cry

Sometimes I drink more than I need
Until the TV's dead and gone
I may be lonely
But I'm never alone
And the night may pass me by
But I never cry

Take away, take away my eyes
Sometimes I'd rather be blind
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone

'Cause that's all I got to give you
Believe me babe, it ain't been used
My heart's a virgin, it ain't never been tried
And you know I never cry
Yeah you know I never cry
Well you know, you know, you know, you know I never cry
I never cry

Break a heart, go ahead, break a heart of stone
Open it up, but don't you leave it alone
'Cause that's all I got to give you
Believe me babe, it ain't been used
My heart's a virgin it ain't never been tried
And you know I never cry
I never cry

Poison

In the context of biology, poisons are substances that cause disturbances to organisms, usually by chemical reaction or other activity on the molecular scale, when a sufficient quantity is absorbed by an organism. The fields of medicine (particularly veterinary) and zoology often distinguish a poison from a toxin, and from a venom. Toxins are poisons produced by some biological function in nature, and venoms are usually defined as toxins that are injected by a bite or sting to cause their effect, while other poisons are generally defined as substances absorbed through epithelial linings such as the skin or gut. more »
