[Verse 1]
Hamlet's dad, he got it bad
They sent him off stage right
Now we're here and stuck, my dear
No antidote in sight

[Pre-Chorus]
Venom and nightshade and
Strychnine's done in some
Antifreeze and hives of bees
Or just a gallon of rum

[Chorus]
Make no mistake, I still need you the most
Time has the power to bind us too close
The dose is the poison we've had more than most
Darling
Darling

[Verse 2]
For three long years, we've walked alone
Walked underneath this cloud
So shake that rain outta your bad ear
And hear what I say out loud

[Pre-Chorus]
Yushchеnko and Rasputin
Did not foresee their fate
Socratеs and Hercules
Figured out too late
[Chorus]
Make no mistake, I still need you the most
Time has the power to bind us too close
The dose is the poison we've had more than most
Darling

[Chorus]
Hearts are unbroken and in the right place
Time's in reverse 'til you fall out of step
The dose is the poison in this pillowcase
Darling
Darling
