The Mountain Goats - Alpha Negative lyrics

The house was pretty and the yard was wide And I felt strong with you at my side Your eyes at night had a beautiful glowing in them And I knew in my heart just what was growing in them Ah, but you made me drink poison It felt smooth running down my throat I love you, and you made me drink poison It was cool and smooth and sweet Do you remember? We had a bed of daisies thriving in the yard And I quit my job, so I could hold you all the time I tried to stop the thing metastasizing in us But in the warm, slow evening I could feel it rising in us Ah, and you made me drink poison It felt so smooth, sliding down my throat I love you so much, and you made me drink poison It was cool and smooth and sweet and cool And smooth and sweet and cool and smooth
