Poison Lyrics by Matt Sax

Venice (Original Cast Recording)

2014

[Clown MC]
It is eerily quiet
The air is scarily silent
With the feeling any moment
Could explode into riots
PTSD of twenty years of grief
Flooding heavy on the minds
Of those who never sleep
Revenge is on the minds of the masses
Pointing fingers searching for the source of
The casket
[All]
Dear Venice can you feel me coming
[Clown MC]
Ashes to ashes
Devolves into madness
[All]
Have we reached
The beginning of the end of peace?
Nightmares of where we've been
Told to stay inside and off of these streets
Have we seen
The end of our collective dream?
Watch it go down in flames
This ghost town remains
[Clown MC]
There's nothing that lasts forever
So we've discovered together
Now the two brothers together
Watch how they handle the pressure
They sit in the eye of the storm
Looking at the city as it silently swarms
[All]
War
[Clown MC]
On the doorstep
Better make the right move
Better watch your step
[All]
Watch
[Clown MC]
Our mismatched brother engage
With the city in paralysis, the city enraged
[Venice]
We were on track
It was clear as day
[Markos]
Uninvited unfound
[Venice]
What was white and black
Is now shades of gray
[Markos]
Heart not making a sound
[Venice]
And mother, they've taken your dream away
[Markos]
Mother you're not around
[Venice] (Markos)
Hold on to the hope
Of a peaceful day (Better bet I'll)
(Wear the crown)
[Markos]
Dear brother
There's only one thing left to do
They've declared war
And what's more
She betrayed you
Tell the people we are coming
Declare a revolution
Rise up on Westbrook
Leave no confusion
[All]
Left for dead
Did everything that you said
Now it's time somebody bled
Dear Venice
Cause I can't see the light
Left to rot
Did you think that we forgot?
Time to show us what you got
Dear Venice
Cause I can't see the light
Dear Venice can you feel this moment
Is this the day that we can say
You paved the way?
