Toxic
Losing Yourself for the One You Love
you speak words made out of knives, nothing left in me to wants to survive. every time we talk, it's nothing more than your despise. I try to reach the surface, but you keep my head underwater.
I try to speak, but you seal me up like a to-go box, in one ear out the other. I'm screaming, crying out for help, but you just look at me and smile like my pain is nothing more than a paper cut.
Listen. LISTEN to me. Do you know how to comprehend? can you just take a freaking moment to understand, me? Can you step off your pedestal and half ass an apology?
you blame me as if your life depended on it. I'm always wrong, you're always right. keep blowing these punches and you'll see I'll come out stronger than I was before. Keep shoving these lies down my throat and soon you'll hear me roar. keep acting like you don't care and I'll see myself to the door.
Draining me of my energy, you're over it. So why don't you just tell me, why we holding on to this when you know damn well you ain't feeling it? Why didn't you let me go when I didn't want to stay, but now that we're here, I am the one lost at bay?
I can't stand you, but I still love you.
but you're poison.
You were good to me, but then you manipulated me.
I hate you, but I still love you.
