CORETTA SCOTT LYRICS

"Poison Apple"

I'm so on top
You look in control
I've conquered mountains with strides to go
I never fear and never sin
The worst of you is the best in them
Did you ever judge or ever speak in vain?
Only the steps I took were in the lord's name
Never was about what's right or wrong, never was about, never was about

This is all a lie
Cigarettes and coffee couldn't hide
I need something stronger
I see it in your face
Poison apple in my fairy tale, take me away
The kiss needed (kiss needed)
to drive me from sleep (sleep)

(Drive me from) Self medicate to try
(Drive me from) and match the feeling
(Drive me from sleep) Anything to feel as beautiful (beautiful)
Means justified by the reason (by the reason)
Love more, lesser I'm loved
And start to let go

These are the words daddy couldn't understand at all
My son's no faggot,
meeting with boys in unmentionable places
Who will carry on this family name?
What will the neighbors think?
The drugs don't work, but neither do we
Keep shuffling the problems just changes the order

These are the words momma couldn't understand at all
My daughter's no slut,
Starring at the party as a sure fire bet
Once that keg blows, boys come calling
Don't you feel so beautiful?
The drugs don't work but neither do we
Keep shuffling the problems just changes the order

(Drive me from) Self medicate to try
(Drive me from) and match the feeling
(Drive me from sleep) Anything to feel as beautiful (beautiful)
Means justified by the reason (by the reason)
Love more, lesser I'm loved
And start to let go

Self medicate to try and match the feeling
Anything to feel as beautiful
Means justified by the reason
Love more, lesser I'm loved
And start to let go ([echo:] and start to let go)
