Deadly Nightshade Lyrics

I had to look this one up. Like others have said, Deadly Nightshade is Atropa belladonna. What struck me about the song was that it sounds like the person in the song doesn't force the deadly nightshade on the person. "The things I've done" comes after "be careful what you touch" and the "victim falls". Maybe I am taking it too literally.
