Quick Poison
Navigating Temptations: Quick Poison's Dance with Deception
Lyrics
Just one, one won't hurt
Expressing the belief that consuming one won't cause harm.
And a couple more don't count
Suggesting that a few more won't be significant or count as a problem.
I said I'd never start and
Stating a previous commitment to not start, possibly referring to a substance or habit.
Of course I never have and
Asserting that the commitment to not start has been maintained.
I'll light up another one before
Planning to indulge again before having time to reflect on the decision.
I have the time to think about it
Emphasizing a lack of time for contemplation before engaging in the activity.
Another Bullshit excuse
Describing another invalid or insincere justification for an action.
Another way to please my conscious
Introducing a motive related to satisfying one's conscience.
Another burning fuse
Referring to a dangerous situation or decision with the metaphor of a burning fuse.
Another quick poison, quick poison
Highlighting the imminent and swift destructive nature of the decision, using "quick poison" as a metaphor.
A quick flirt
Describing a brief romantic or casual interaction.
A picture you shouldn't send or receive
Warning against sharing inappropriate photos.
A quick rush, from the drug
Describing a rapid, intense sensation likely induced by a drug.
Another lie I hope to believe
Acknowledging a deception that the person wishes to believe.
Quick poison turns into quick-sand
Comparing the quick poison to quicksand, indicating its pulling and trapping nature.
It's pulling me down down down
Portraying the worsening situation and descent into a harmful state.
And not letting me go
Expressing the difficulty of breaking free from the destructive influence.
Another Bullshit excuse
Reiterating the presence of invalid justifications for actions.
Another way to please my conscious
Connecting actions to a desire to satisfy one's conscience.
Another burning fuse
Referring again to a dangerous situation or decision with the metaphor of a burning fuse.
Another quick poison, quick poison
Repeating the warning about the swift and destructive nature of the decision.
So pass me one more
Requesting another indulgence despite the intention to quit.
I know I will quit
Expressing the knowledge that quitting is necessary despite current actions.
I said it before
Reiterating a previous commitment to quit.
Of course I'll
Anticipating quitting after the current instance of indulgence.
Quit after this one
Stating the intention to quit after the current consumption.
And I'll
Quit after that one
Committing to quitting after the next instance of indulgence.
But I'm
Expressing the contradictory action of reaching for another indulgence despite the commitment to quit.
Reaching out for another one
Continuing to seek another indulgence without taking time to reflect.
before I have the time to think about it
Repeating the lack of time for contemplation before engaging in the activity.
Quick Poison, the swine-dog wins
Declaring the victory of a negative influence, perhaps an addiction or bad habit.
Maybe it's only therapy for my sins
Suggesting that the negative influence might serve as a form of therapy for personal shortcomings or mistakes.
Or maybe it's part of the process
Considering the negative influence as a necessary part of personal growth or change.
Even though it blurs my consciousness
Acknowledging the impact on consciousness despite its blurring effect.
