Persistence

You were always You were always around I was distant I was resistant to be helped To be found You were hoping You could save me from myself, From my hell, But the best parts of you died Every time you tried Every time you failed I'll bite the bullet I'll take the pills They won't be the death of me Nothing will You sank your teeth in I sucked out the venom And swallowed it down You played the victim I played the villain Then we turned it around And back around The coalesced blood burned, But still we never learned once it formed We kept biting more I'll bite the bullet I'll take the pills They won't be the death of me Nothing will You'll sink your fangs in And take my will You can be the death of me I'll love you still Colourless in the air Breathe me in Poisonous; you don't care Drink me in
