Warren Zeiders said about the song, "This is my favorite song that I've ever written. Like a moth to a flame, this song is about being led into temptation between love and toxicity. Choosing something or someone that we ultimately know will hurt us in the end." [1] [2] [3]
"Pretty Little Poison" features guitar riffs, [3] while lyrically, Zeiders describes being easily swayed by his momentary lover and old memories, [4] letting his heart rule his head. [3] He compares his passion to the feeling of being addicted to a drug. [2]
"Pretty Little Poison" reached number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart dated March 2, 2024, becoming Zeiders's first number one single, and the first debut single to top the chart since Nate Smith's "Whiskey on You" thirteen months earlier.
