"The Poison Woman" lyrics - THE DEAR HUNTER

The seed of the apothecary, an heir to aided ends
She loves the sound they make as they expel
A breath, the soul from their chest
She laughs a little, but never makes a sound

[Chorus:]
She swears she's offerin' you something savory (What lies she tells)
So take a drink, her product's number one (Right down the hatch)
And now, it seems, a smooth intoxication, well
Just one drop is more than enough

She never dwells on penitence, advancing in a haze
A million men have reached an end
A side effect of incompetence
She laughs a little, but never smiles

[Chorus:]
She swears she's offerin' you something savory (What lies she tells)
So take a drink, her product's number one (Right down the hatch)
And now, it seems, a smooth intoxication, well
Just one drop is more than enough

[Bridge:]
She has her superstitions, they've got their rationale on call
(They never saw it coming, they never stood a chance)
She's got a new tradition, involving ethylene glycol
(They never saw it coming, they never stood a chance)
She has no apprehension, habit sustains her wickedness
(They never saw it coming, they never stood a chance)

[Outro:]
With the weight of the world on her shoulders
She don't want none of the sins
As they unfurl in her palms, in her palms
With the weight of the world on her shoulders
She don't want none of the sins
As they unfurl in her palms, in her palms
Take this bottle, take this bottle, take this bottle...
Take this bottle, take this bottle, take this bottle...
