Chemical From Hell

Sprout

Please do not breath in fumes
That you think are pretty colors
The delicately broken longing
Is poison undercover

Your lungs will be inflamed
They'll eat your swollen heart
A teapot under pressure  
As you slowly grow apart

Your breath will feel so labored
As you're breathing now for two
Your head will feel all foggy
Life is no longer about just you

Your nostrils will start to bleed
And your nose will start to smell
The scent that you had missed
Love is a chemical straight from hell
