Lyrics The Bravery

The Bravery

Slow Poison

Burn, burn the house on fire

I'm so sick and tired

I can still remember your sound

It's cut, cut, cutting me down

I'm locked and loaded

You're so milk and roses

And I am just a letdown of your hound

It's cut, cut, cutting me down

Like slow poison

Cut down, slow poison

Save me one more hymnal

I have found my angel

Ah, ah, oh, she walks upon the ground

It's cut, cut, cutting me down

On an empty can

I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land

Gone, gone, just gone without a sound

It's cut, cut, cutting me down

Like slow poison

Cut down like slow poison

And all my dreams are only dreams

And all my schemes are only schemes

And if this is my punishment

Then I want my card to fit

Burn, burn the house on fire

I'm so sick and tired

I can still remember your sound

It is cut, cut, cutting me down

Like slow poison

Cut down like slow poison

It's cutting me like slow poison

Save me one more hymnal

I have found my angel

Ah, ah, oh, she walks upon the ground

It's cut, cut, cutting me down
