Icon For Hire – Venom lyrics

[Chorus]
Misery, misery is the venom in my brain
Killin' me, killin' me, but I don't feel the pain
Running from something that I can't really explain
Misery, misery is the venom in our veins

[Verse 1]
It's been kind of cold, feeling all alone
Haven't been myself in quite a while, you know
They got in my head, like everybody said
Cautionary tale, how quick the sick can spread

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't meet their eyes, it's hypnotic
Make you forget that it's toxic
Caught up in all the chaotic
Sold you a lie and you bought it
Before you know it, you're nauseous
Hands down your throat 'til you vomit
Collapse from all the exhaustion
And now they got what they wanted

[Chorus]
Misery, misery is the venom in my brain
Killin' me, killin' me, but I don't feel the pain
Running from something that I can't really explain
Misery, misery is the venom in our veins

[Transition]
Na na na, na na na oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Show me where it hurts, I'll show you how it works
They prey on your fear of how it just gets worse
I can't tell if it's real, though, don't know if it's lethal
Did we drink the poison or just a placebo?

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't meet their eyes, it's hypnotic
Make you forget that it's toxic
Caught up in all the chaotic
Sold you a lie and you bought it
Before you know it, you're nauseous
Hands down your throat 'til you vomit
Collapse from all the exhaustion
And now they got what they wanted

[Chorus]
Misery, misery is the venom in my brain
Killin' me, killin' me, but I don't feel the pain
Running from something that I can't really explain
Misery, misery is the venom in our veins

[Bridge]
So watch your step or you're gonna fall apart
Hold yourself together inside the dark
Don't look down, you won't get far
You're only as strong as you think you are

[Outro]
Running from something that I can't really explain
Misery, misery is the venom in our veins
