Poison
アン・ルイス Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

たかが命ひとつ惜しむようじゃ
惚れられてもアタシかわいそう
冗談じゃないこのキスは
POISON POISON
痺れる男とは天国まで行けるよ
ふざけた野郎なら悪魔の餌食
たかが女ひとり愛せなくて
ロマンも美意識もありゃしない

肝心なのは燃える事
POISON POISON
心も裸なら芯まで熱くなるよ
脅えて逃げるなら地獄へ堕ちろ
冗談じゃないこのキスは
愛情試す毒薬さ

心も裸なら芯まで熱くなるよ
脅えて逃げるなら地獄へ堕ちろ
冗談じゃないこのキスは
愛情試す毒薬さ

肝心なのは燃える事
瞬間すべて燃やす事
