A Little Bit of Poison
A Little Bit of Poison: Embracing Strength Through Love's Trials
Lyrics
You need a little bit of poison
Desire for a small amount of something harmful
You need a little bit of poison
Reiteration of the need for a small dose of poison
You need a little bit of poison
Continued emphasis on the necessity of poison
To keep you strong
Using poison metaphorically to fortify oneself
First time is the hardest
Initial experiences are the most difficult
Cut you like a knife
Comparing the impact of a first experience to a sharp cut
If it doesn't kill you
If the experience doesn't destroy you, you move forward
You get on with your life
Resilience after facing hardships
Wind and rain and stormy weather
Life's challenges and emotions are akin to unpredictable weather
Love and pain just run together
Love and pain are intertwined aspects of life
You need a little bit of poison
Repeated emphasis on needing a small amount of poison
You need a little bit of poison
Continued expression of the necessity of poison
You need a little bit of poison
Continued emphasis on needing poison for strength
To keep you strong
Reiterating the metaphorical use of poison for inner strength
Second time sweet and kind
The second encounter seems pleasant but can be deceiving
Look out or you'll fall
Warning about being lured into a false sense of security
Think you'll leave a love behind
Misconceptions about leaving love behind
It ain't that way at all
Reality doesn't align with initial perceptions
She's on your mind night and day
Constantly thinking about someone who's emotionally distant
But she's a million miles away
Despite thoughts, the person is unreachable
You need a little bit of poison
Reiteration of needing a small dose of poison
You need a little bit of poison
Continued expression of the necessity of poison
You need a little bit of poison
Emphasis on needing poison for strength
To keep you strong
Repeating the metaphor of poison for inner fortification
The way you love me leaves me weak
Feeling emotionally drained by love
To weak to even cry
Too emotionally exhausted to even cry
If you go you'll kill me
Warning about the potential devastating impact of leaving
Girl, don't even try
Advising against leaving due to the detrimental effect
First a little then a little more
Gradual intoxication or immersion into a situation
Make me forget where I been before
Getting lost in the present, forgetting past experiences
I need a little bit of poison
Personal acknowledgment of needing a small amount of poison
I need a little bit of poison
Reiterated personal need for a small dose of poison
I need a little bit of poison
Continued personal emphasis on needing poison for strength
To keep you strong
Reiterating the use of poison metaphorically for inner fortitude
