Contaminated Love

You made me live a life of hate and passion
You’ve given me poison and I die from love.
I no longer hear the birds songs nor see the 
sun’s rays Because you are 

                            no longer by my side

You provided me with a world I had never seen.
I know now that world was dead and full 

                            of lies, misery and pain.

Now I cannot feel the caresses of anyone else.
I accepted your lies because I loved you.
I accepted the hemlock you provided every 
night and 

                             I became contaminated.

                 I’m poison to myself and others.

Oh Heavens above, forgive me, I still
Want to taste that poison, even if it

                                     kills me.
