The Venom

(Oh)
(Oh)
(Oh)
(Oh)
(Oh)
(Oh)

I taste you on my tongue
There's a ghost running through my blood
And I see you in my dreams
I wanna let go
The venom that sleeps in me
Too long it's been lying low
Your colours are starting to show in a neon chokehold

If I forget you will it make it go away?
Will I have no more memories?
Will it take the dreams away?
If I forget you will it sting a little less?
Or will it make another mess?
Will it help if I forget you?

I feel you walking the halls
I'm seeing your shadows on walls
I'm starting to think you won't leave
A leaking pipedream
For years it's been over and done
But I still feel your smoke in my lungs
It's feeling like you took a piece of what was left of me

We seem weaker by the week
Falling shorter with every sleep (shorter with every sleep)
Oh, can't you see? (Can't you see?)
Can't you see?
You are so cold when you speak
So cold your tears they don't fall from your cheeks
Oh, can't you see?
Oh, can't you see?

If I forget you will it make it go away? (Make it go away)
Will I have no more memories? (No more memory)
Will it take the dreams away? (No more dreams of you)
If I forget you will it sting a little less? (I'm not forgetting)
Or will it make another mess? (Just make another mess)
Will it help if I forget you?

Forget you
I'm not forgetting
No more memory
I'm not forgetting
Forget you
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Just make another mess
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

Oh, oh
I wanna forget
One day I'll forget you
I wanna forget
But I don't wanna forget you
