Toxic
Love's Poison: Navigating Heartbreak and Toxicity in Layton Grey's Melody
Lyrics
Don't mind me
Expressing a disregard for attention
Doing my best to forget you
Attempting to erase memories of you
But when I go out
Whenever I'm out, your name keeps coming up
Seems like I always end up hearing your name
Constantly reminded of you
I've been with other people
I've been with others, but it doesn't feel the same
I guess it don't feel the same
Comparing experiences with others to what we had
They don't compare
They don't measure up to you
Some nights I feel like that won't change
Sometimes feels like it won't change
So we'll blame the stars and say that we weren't compatible
Blaming the stars for incompatibility
We made shitty decisions and we both fought back
Regretting bad choices and mutual conflict
Over and over and over
Repeated cycles of fighting
We fought with fire and it burned us
Engaged in destructive conflict
Thought we could handle the heat
Believed we could handle intense situations
Should've known from the start
Realization of misjudgment from the start
You were never ever in it for love
You never truly cared for love
You made me believe I was nothing but terrible
You convinced me I was worthless
You were the toxic chemical
You were the harmful influence
The toxic chemical
Repeated emphasis on your toxicity
I overheard it at a party that you got a new boyfriend
Heard about your new relationship
And they said
Rumors about your compatibility with him
That you and him are good together and you're sticking it out
Others believe you're good together
They told me every time you touch him makes incredible static
Description of intense chemistry between you
So I
Masking emotions despite hearing about your new relationship
Fake a smile and hide emotion till the end of the night
Forcing a smile and concealing feelings
So we'll blame the stars and say that we weren't compatible
Blaming astrological incompatibility again
We made shitty decisions and we both fought back
Repeating the acknowledgment of poor decisions
Over and over and over
Continued cycles of conflict
We fought with fire and it burned us
Engaging in harmful conflicts repeatedly
Thought we could handle the heat
Believed we could withstand the pressure
Should've known from the start
Realization of initial misjudgment
You were never ever in it for love
Reiteration of your lack of genuine feelings
You made me believe I was nothing but terrible
Feeling worthless due to your influence
You were the toxic chemical
Confirmation of your damaging impact
When he kisses your skin
Imagining intimate moments with you and him
Takes off your dress
Visualizing intimate actions
Touches your neck like I used to
Comparing his actions to mine
Then he turns off the lights, another part of me dies
Suffering emotionally when imagining your intimacy
I just cant get you out of my head
Struggling to move on, thoughts consumed by you
Should've known from the start
Recognition of initial misjudgment repeated
You were never ever in it for love
Reaffirmation of your lack of genuine feelings
You made me believe I was nothing but terrible
Believing myself to be worthless due to your influence
You were the toxic chemical
Confirmation of your harmful impact once more
My toxic chemical
Emphasizing your harmful influence as 'toxic'
