Otrove
Jovan Perisic · Other Songs - Jovan Perisic
snovi jos uvek zive
tvoji kraj nekog, moji kraj tuge
ali te ne krive
Svacije nemoj mene sve vise
u tvoju mrezu plelo
al' veci neko sudbinu pise
taj me kraj tebe hteo
Ref. 2x
Otrove, pijem te u zdravlje
godina, porusenih snova
bezim ti ali puta nema
bez tvojih tragova
Rekla si idem i tu sam stao
ni korak od tog bola
i svakoj sto sam dodire krao
bio sam losa skola
Svacije nemoj mene sve vise
u tvoju mrezu plelo
al' veci neko sudbinu pise
taj me kraj tebe hteo
Ref. 3x
A love remembered as both poison and refuge
The beloved becomes an intoxicating danger in “Otrove” (“Poison”), a Jovan Perišić ballad about wanting to escape a painful relationship while remaining drawn back to it. The narrator remembers the love and the dreams it carried, but now sees the relationship as something harmful that still leaves traces everywhere. That push and pull gives the song its central tension: rejection and longing occupy the same breath.
“Otrove” appears on Perišić's 2016 album *Snaga ljubavi*, released by Grand Production. Its romantic folk arrangement supports the song's dramatic metaphor, letting the refrain carry the conflict between trying to move on and failing to erase the past. The track sits comfortably beside the album's other songs of heartbreak and regret, while using a sharper image than a conventional lament.
No verified chart peak is available for this recording. Its album placement and digital lyric listings provide the clearest release context. “Otrove” stands out for treating emotional attachment as both irresistible and damaging; the narrator knows the relationship has hurt him, yet cannot imagine a clean exit from its memory.
