In this captivating track, the artist paints a picture of an irresistible yet destructive love affair. He compares his lover to a "pretty little poison," symbolizing her allure and the harm she inflicts on him simultaneously. Despite knowing the emotional pain he endures, he's drawn to her, much like a moth to a flame. The metaphor of her kiss being like 'cyanide' further emphasizes this toxic relationship. However, he willingly embraces this 'poison,' preferring the temporary high of being with her over the emptiness without her. The song is a poignant exploration of how sometimes people knowingly stay in harmful relationships for the sake of momentary happiness or comfort.
Pretty Little Poison
Lyrics
Every night 'round about this time
It's like she knows I'm lonely
Rolls up when the wine is gone
Like a record on repeat
Leaning on old memories
And talking 'bout what we used to be
She'll probably be the death of me
But damn if it ain't sweet
She's my pretty little poison
My heartache in the night
With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide
Yeah, she came with a warning
But I didn't mind
I'll go out on that high every time
She's my pretty little poison
My pretty little poison
Shadows dancin' down the hall
Whispers that she wants me
Try my best not to fall
When she falls into me
We all need some kind of fix
For me she's the one I pick
Nothin' else will do the trick
She's all I need
She's my pretty little poison
My heartache in the night
With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide
Yeah, she came with a warning
But I didn't mind
I'll go out on that high every time
She's my pretty little poison
My pretty little poison
For some, I guess it's alcohol
I don't want none at all
I just want you
No, I just want you
My pretty little poison
My heartache in the night
With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide
Yeah, she came with a warning
But I didn't mind
I'll go out on that high every time
She's my pretty little poison
My pretty little poison
She's my pretty little poison
