"Slow Poison" lyrics

"Slow Poison"

Burn burn, house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
And it's cut cut cutting me down
I'm locked and loaded
You're so milk and roses
And i am just a letdown of your hound
And It's cut cut cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down like slow poison

Sing me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
Ah-ah-oh
She walks upon the ground
And it's cut cut cutting me down
I'm an the empty can
I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land
Gone, gone, just gone without a sound
And it's cut cut cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison

And all my dreams are only dreams
And all my schemes are only schemes
And if this is my punishment
Then I want my crime to fit

Burn burn house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
And it's cut cut cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison
It's cutting me
Like slow poison
