Poison Was The Cure Lyrics - Rust In Peace - Megadeth

I miss the warm embrace I felt 

First time you touched me 

Secure and safe in open arms 

I should have known you'd crush me 

A snake you were when we met 

I loved you anyway 

Pulling out your poisoned fangs 

The venom never goes away 

Serpent swims free in my blood 

Dragons sleeping in my veins 

Jackyl speaking with tongue 

Roach egg laying in my brain 

Once stalked beneath your shadow 

Sleepwalking to the gallows 

I'm the sun that beats your brow in 

Til I finally threw the towel in 

Never knowing if I'd wake up in a 

Whirlpool got redundant 

My brain was just some driftwood 

In a cesspool I became dead 

From a rock star to a desk fool 

Was my destiny someone said 

Loves a tidepool 

Taste the waters life's abundant 

Taste me
