Poison

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Aaliyah] How can I explain myself to you? Questions keep lurkin' through my mind Is it the lover for the time? I'd given my heart, my joy, my soul to you If it is real, I sure can't see Gotta start lookin' out for me And in my, my heart won't take no more I know it seems that I don't care Sometimes my ways of love ain't fair I feel it's time for me to take a stand See, you have given me no choice I feel I must exercise my voice and say [Chorus: The Weeknd] This feeling, there's no drug that can compare You're so cold, I can see your breath, I swear They told me not to fall in love Wonderin' where it all went wrong You were my poison all along [Verse 2: Aaliyah, The Weeknd & Static Major] At night, I lay awake in tears and pain (Tears and pain) Searchin' my heart for what went wrong (Hey) Askin' myself "What's goin' on?" Why could not we seem to see things eye to eye? (Eye to eye) Sometimes I really feel the danger (Hey) And now I'm sleepin' with a stranger To see all these years, we flushed 'em down the drain (Down the drain) Is that a love that came for us? Now, it's too late for both of us No regrets of what we've lost and what we've shared Maybe tomorrow we'll love again (Yeah) Or until then we'll stay as friends, oh (Hey), one day [Chorus: The Weeknd] This feeling, there's no drug that can compare You're so cold, I can see your breath, I swear They told me not to fall in love Wonderin' where it all went wrong You were my poison all along [Outro: The Weeknd] Yeah Poison all long, ooh-yeah Oh-oh-ooh Baby girl, poison all along
