Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The poet's a genius, it's something I don't see
Why would a genius be tripping on me?
And there's looking at another
What he can't see is that I'm looking through his eyes
So many lies behind his eyes
[Verse 2]
And tell me stories from your past and sing me songs you wrote before
I tell you this, my poison prince, you'll soon be knocking on heaven's door
[Verse 3]
Some kind of poison prince with your eyes in a daze
Some kind of poison prince, your life is like a maze
And what we all want and what we all crave
Is an upbeat song so we can dance the night away
[Verse 4]
Who said life was easy? Who said life was fair?
Who said nobody gives a damn and nobody even cared?
The way you're acting now like you left that all behind
You've given up, you've given in
And I'm a sucker of that kind
[Verse 5]
Some kind of poison prince with your eyes in a daze
Some kind of poison prince, your life is like a maze
And what we all want and what we all crave
Is an upbeat song so we can dance the night away
[Verse 6]
Some kind of poison prince with your eyes in a daze
Some kind of poison prince, your life is like a maze
And what we all want and what we all crave
Is an upbeat song so we can dance the night away
