Toxic

 
She starts her day out just the same as any other
She hasn't heard a single word from her brother
In ages
She'd like to think her life won't sink to the bottom
She tells herself she needs no help with her problems
Outrageous

-She takes the pain and shoves it down
She swears that she won't let it out
Now all alone she starts to drown
In her own spiritual drought
And everyone around
Can see she's lost her crown
As she helplessly falls to the ground
She's become toxic now- (chorus)

She pops her pills now just to feel a little better
The alcohol won't help at all, it's crippling her
In stages
She likes to think her life can't sink to the bottom
She begs herself not to get help with her problems
Audacious

(Chorus)

She can't retract how she reacts, the damage is done
She can't erase all her mistakes, as she comes undone
In phases
She tries to think her life won't break at the bottom
She kills herself, refuses help with her problems
Rampageous

(Chorus)
