Well I've opened up my veins too many times
And the poison's in my heart and in my mind
Poison's in my bloodstream, poison's in my pride
I'm after rebellion, I'll settle for lies

    as with a few BoC songs there are a couple of versions. This one is terrible compared to the other one I know.

    The title alone is reason enough to listen to this BOC gem.

    A song to just sit back, close the eyes, and enjoy.

    Nice song. I think I should start digging deeper into this band besides the radio staples.

    POISONS IN MY BLOOD STREAM! poisons in MY PRIDE. then the piano hook comes in, and it immediately becomes the ultimate song in the ultimate album.

    who else thinks about the Scanners film when you hear this song? I agree with LedZepChick, this is SO addictive!! :)

    Alan Lanier is the band's secret weapon. He always could add some nice texture to this hard rock guitar band. Check out Joan Crawford's into piano part.
