Icon For Hire - Venom Lyrics

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

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

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

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

Na na na, na na na oh oh

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?

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

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

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

Running from something that I
Can't really explain
Misery, misery is the venom in our veins
