we all swallow the poison, unknowingly
minute by minute, drink by drink
the poison fills our veins
slowly mortalizing us
we look poison in the face
and poison looks back at us
we taste the poison on our lips
and it fills each bud on our tongue
the poison walks with us wherever we go
when it is near we will never know
it takes a step towards us again
every step is nearer to the end
and we will fear the poison
and the fear will paralyze us
and soon fighting it is no use
cause in the end all of us will lose
burning our throats, suffocating us
as we fight harder to breathe
we will fall into a liquidating sleep
as the posion sinks into us so deep
we all must learn to accept this drink
we all must eventually let ourselves sink
it is the only way to conquer death
to die a little more with each breath
we all swallow the poison, unknowingly
minute by minute, drink by drink
the poison fills our veins
slowly mortalizing us
we look poison in the face
and what do we now see
although the poison kills us
we will all be set free
