POISON HEART


No one ever thought this one would survive. 
Helpless child, gonna walk a drum beat behind. 
Lock you in a dream, never let you go,  
Never let you laugh or smile, not you.  

I just want to walk right out of this world, 
'cause everybody has a poison heart. 
I just want to walk right out of this world, 
'cause everybody has a poison heart. 
 
Making friends with a homeless torn up man, 
He just kind of smiles, it really shakes me up. 
There's danger on every corner but I'm okay, 
Walking down the street trying to forget yesterday. 
 
I just want to walk right out of this world, 
'cause everybody has a poison heart. 
I just want to walk right out of this world, 
'cause everybody has a poison heart. 
 
You know that life really takes its toll 
And a poet's gut reaction is to search his very soul. 
So much damn confusion before my eyes, 
but nothing seems to phase me and this one still survives. 
 
I just want to walk right out of this world, 
'cause everybody has a poison heart. 
I just want to walk right out of this world, 
'cause everybody has a poison heart.
