Toxic little lies
Toxic little lies wove a pretty disguise
Unraveling threads may be my demise.
Naked I may stand and foolish I may be,
Your words no longer hurt me.
Toxic little lies hid behind my eyes
Buried for so long and now they rise.
Unwrapped secrets that I never knew
Go deeper than any narrations from you.
Toxic little games played in the shadows
Demon tag led my heart straight to the gallows.
My head lives heartless and stays in hell
If I was ever your angel, I inevitably fell.
Toxic little promises that I always broke
My sweet nothings have become a bit of a joke.
I talk about love with one foot out the door
I leave and detach then come back for more.
Toxic little love drugs to numb my pain
A few thousand crashes to drive me insane
Now the kisses ain't sweet and don't make me high
Beat thing for you is to tell me goodbye
Toxic little deaths flying from a mouth unchecked
Words aimed where I know it will leave you wrecked
Your tears don't touch me anymore
And your love don't keep me from walking out the door.
