Alter Bridge
Poison in Your Veins
[Verse 1]
How long will you cower down
Until you come to see
That courage is not higher ground
It changes destiny

Not all demons should dare to win
When the fear has no remorse
The time has come to rise again
You were meant to be much more
Somehow, somehow

[Chorus]
It’s like poison in your veins
Oh, it’s the beast you cannot tame
The way you let your fear grow inside
Will chew you up and spit you out in time
Release the poison in your veins right now
Right now, oh

[Verse 2]
Every pain that could have been
Has only failed to be
Cause you've wasted all your precious time
You were too afraid to dream
Well, tell it all to hell, I say
Don’t you waste another day
It’s time for you to own it now
The world is yours to take
Right now

[Chorus]
It’s like poison in your veins
Oh, it’s the beast you cannot tame
The way you let your fear grow inside
Will chew you up and spit you out in time
So release the poison in your veins
So come on, bleed it out, it’s not too late
Watch and choose, the sea is falling short
It’s time for you to rise and be much more

[Bridge]
Don’t waste another day
Don’t let it slip away
The world is all yours to take
Only you could change

[Chorus]
It’s like poison in your veins
Oh, it’s the beast you cannot tame
The way you let your fear grow inside
Will chew you up and spit you out in time
So release the poison in your veins
So come on, bleed it out, it’s not too late
Watch and choose, the sea is falling short
It’s time for you to rise and be much more
Release the poison in your veins right now
[Outro]
Right now
Right now
Right now
