A LITTLE BIT OF POSION – AERYA Lyrics
Careful
Don’t touch the glass
I had a feeling
You’d drink too fast
You saw red lips
And thought romance
Sweet boy
That was your first mistake
I don’t arrive
I happen
Like rumours
Like weather
Like lipstick on collars
Like something your mother
Prayed you’d avoid
And still
Here you are
A little bit of poison
Goes a long, long way
One kiss on your mouth
And you won’t feel the same
A little of poison
In a pretty little voice
I won’t make you love me
I’ll make you think it was your choice
Oh, how lovely
Oh, how sad
He had a good heart
So I took that
I don’t need a knife
I don’t need a gun
I just say your name
Like you’re the only one
I look up through my lashes
I laugh at your jokes
I let you feel chosen
Then tighten the rope
Not cruel
Just gifted
There’s a difference
Depending who’s bleeding
A little bit of poison
In the wine, wine, wine
A little bit of sugar
So it tastes like mine
A little of poison
In the touch, touch, touch
Poor little darling
Did I give too much?
I warned you, didn’t I?
No?
That does sound like me
I’m wicked with manners
A sin in silk
I’ll ruin your life
And ask how you’ve been
I’ll dance in your kitchen
I’ll sleep in your shirt
I’ll learn where it aches
Then press where it hurts
And you’ll call it love
Because men always do
When a woman destroys them
Beautifully, in perfume
A little bit of poison
Goes a long, long way
One kiss on your mouth
And you won’t feel the same
A little of poison
In a pretty little voice
I won’t make you love me
I’ll make you think it was your choice
Mother said, “Baby, be gentle”
I said, “Of course”
Then smiled at the floor
Like the devil in church
I tried being good
It was boring
I tried being soft
They ate me alive
So I sharpened my sweetness
And practiced my eyes
Now look at me, darling
I sparkle when I lie
A little bit of poison
In the wine, wine, wine
A little bit of sugar
So it tastes like mine
A little of poison
In the touch, touch, touch
Poor little darling
Did I give too much?
By morning you’ll miss me
By Monday you’ll ache
By Friday you’ll swear
I was your biggest mistake
Then call me
Of course
And I’ll answer
Of course
With a voice like forgiveness
And a heart like a locked door
I am not the lesson
I am not the cure
I am what comes after
A man gets too sure
I am not your angel
I am not your wife
I am a bad little feeling
In a beautiful life
A little bit of poison
Goes a long, long way
One kiss on your mouth
And you won’t feel the same
A little of poison
In a pretty little voice
I won’t make you love me
I’ll make you think it was your choice
Careful
Don’t touch the glass
Oh, darling
Too late
