Lyrics
[Intro]
(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
[Verse 1]
Bitter taste on his tongue, a sip of fate's cruel jest
A moment's curiosity, a decision he'll regret
His world spins out of control, as the poison takes its toll
A friend's final farewell, turned into a living hell
[Pre-Chorus]
(He took a sip) Of the forbidden drink
(He couldn't resist) Now he's on the brink
(Of losing it all) In a twist of fate
(He'll have to crawl) Back from hell's gate
[Chorus]
One sip, one mistake
A life hangs in the balance, there's no escape
One choice, one regret
He'll fight to survive, but he'll never forget
The bitter taste of death, the price he'll pay
For a moment's lapse in judgment, he'll rue the day
(He took a sip, he took a sip)
[Verse 2]
Machines beep and hiss, as he clings to life
Doctors work 'round the clock, to pull him from the knife
His mind trapped in a haze, as he fights through the days
A lesson learned too late, a price too high to pay
[Pre-Chorus]
(He took a sip) Of the reaper's brew
(He didn't think it through) Now he's paying his due
(On the edge of the abyss) He'll have to resist
(The pull of the mist) And find his way back to the light
[Chorus]
One sip, one mistake
A life hangs in the balance, there's no escape
One choice, one regret
He'll fight to survive, but he'll never forget
The bitter taste of death, the price he'll pay
For a moment's lapse in judgment, he'll rue the day
(He took a sip, he took a sip)
[Bridge]
In the depths of despair, he'll find the strength to fight
Clawing his way back, from the edge of endless night
A second chance at life, a hard-learned lesson gained
He'll cherish every breath, and break free from death's chains
Chorus]
One sip, one mistake
A life hangs in the balance, there's no escape
One choice, one regret
He'll fight to survive, but he'll never forget
The bitter taste of death, the price he'll pay
For a moment's lapse in judgment, he'll rue the day
(He took a sip, he took a sip)
[Outro]
(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
(He took a sip, and nearly slipped away)
(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
(But he'll live to see another day)
