Poison

Late at night when you have trouble sleeping I hope you can hear me singing Cooing you this lullaby with magic laced between the lines This is for tears at midnight with no shoulder to cry The words I spit are sick My good grace don't exist I swing where the wind blows Feel the earth in my toes I hear conscience calling Sun child where you go Hieroglyphic writings Say only karma knows Smoking mirrors are hung All around broken hearts Inhale deep then breathe slow Burning through your ego Your defense is useless Eyes roll back you digest What you gift wrapped to me I return your poison Breathe in slow (blow) Eyes roll back Blow, breathe in slow Breathe in slow Eyes roll How does it feel to take your own medicine You digest a dose of your own poison I won't tell your secrets They speak all for themselves Cascade poems off tongues That double-back into snakes Deception is your guide But I'm changing my course You see I own the nigh I probably should have warned I hear conscience calling Sun child where you go Hieroglyphic writings Say only karma knows Smoking mirrors are hung All around broken hearts Inhale deep then breathe slow Burning through your ego Your defense is useless Eyes roll back you digest What you gift wrapped to me I return your poison
