Poison Ivy Lyrics

Slowly her blood will kill him
Dying upon the leaves of poison
Body and mind
Helpless, I watch him leave us
Lurking in utter darkness
Hiding from his past and his pride
Sadly, I’ve been where you are, so I know that
All the things you think you know
and all the things you say you love
are just lullabies at night
Echoes of her lies

You don’t see it, pretend you’re blind
You’re afraid of what you might find
You need her poison to numb your mind
A victim of the barren soil

Don’t fear your own conviction
Don’t be a remnant of her craving
Distinguish life from lies
I know you hurt just the way she hurts
I know she cries just the way you cry
But what you never share is that one smile
Trust me, I’ve been where you are, so I know that
All the things you think you know
and all the things you say you love
are just lullabies at night
Echoes of her cries

Don’t live her lie, you’re not blind
No need to fear what you will find
Drain her poison out of your mind
Don’t be the victim of her barren soul

Slowly her blood will kill him
Dying upon the leaves of poison
Body and mind
Helpless, I watch him leave us
Lurking in utter darkness
Hiding from his past and his pride
Sadly, I’ve been where you are, so I know that
All the things you think you know
and all the things you say you love
are just lullabies at night
Echoes of her lies
 
You don’t see it, pretend you’re blind
You’re afraid of what you might find
You need her poison to numb your mind
A victim of the barren soil
 
Don’t fear your own conviction
Don’t be a remnant of her craving
Distinguish life from lies
I know you hurt just the way she hurts
I know she cries just the way you cry
But what you never share is that one smile
Trust me, I’ve been where you are, so I know that
All the things you think you know
and all the things you say you love
are just lullabies at night
Echoes of her cries

Don’t live her lie, you’re not blind
No need to fear what you will find
Drain her poison out of your mind
Don’t be the victim of her barren soul

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
