Toxic

लिरिक्स

**Intro** Yeah… Lights low, phone face-down, But I still see every shadow in this house. Don’t move, don’t breathe too loud— I already know. **Verse 1** I check the clock, then I check your screen, Every notification feels like a threat to me. You say “just friends,” but I hear the lie, I replay every word while the minutes die. Your laugh with someone else cuts deeper than a knife, I start inventing stories in the middle of the night. I tell myself it’s love, but it’s control in disguise, I need to own the air that you breathe and the look in your eyes. **Pre-Chorus** I hold you tighter when you try to leave the room, Ask a hundred questions just to watch you squirm. If you care about me, prove it—cut them all away, Or I’ll burn this whole damn world so you can’t walk away. **Chorus** I’m toxic, baby, and I know it, Jealous poison running through my veins. I love you like a cage, not a home, I’ll smother every spark until you’re mine alone. Toxic, yeah I’m toxic, I’d rather see you broken than set free. Say you need me, say you fear me, That’s the only way this love will ever be. **Chorus** I’m toxic, baby, and I own it, Every “where were you” is a loaded gun. I trace your steps, I read your mind, If you’re not looking at me, then you’re doing something wrong. Toxic, yeah I’m toxic, I’d rather choke this love than let it breathe. Stay right here, don’t you dare leave— This is the only version of us that I believe. **Verse 2** I scroll through names I don’t even know, Build entire affairs from a single “hello.” You change your password, I lose my mind, Suddenly every silence feels like a crime. I say I’m protecting us, but I’m locking the doors, Turning every soft word into a score I keep. You try to calm me down, I twist it into proof, That if you really loved me, you’d never need the truth. **Verse 3** Late nights I sit and rewrite the past, Convince myself you’re planning your escape at last. I invent the worst so I can feel in control, Then punish you for things that only live in my soul. I hate the way you smile when I’m not the reason why, Hate the way the world still exists outside these four walls. I call it passion, but it’s fear dressed as desire, I’d rather watch you drown than watch you walk away from the fire. **Pre-Chorus** I hold you tighter when you try to leave the room, Ask a hundred questions just to watch you squirm. If you care about me, prove it—cut them all away, Or I’ll burn this whole damn world so you can’t walk away. **Chorus** I’m toxic, baby, and I know it, Jealous poison running through my veins. I love you like a cage, not a home, I’ll smother every spark until you’re mine alone. Toxic, yeah I’m toxic, I’d rather see you broken than set free. Say you need me, say you fear me, That’s the only way this love will ever be. **Chorus** I’m toxic, baby, and I own it, Every “where were you” is a loaded gun. I trace your steps, I read your mind, If you’re not looking at me, then you’re doing something wrong. Toxic, yeah I’m toxic, I’d rather choke this love than let it breathe. Stay right here, don’t you dare leave— This is the only version of us that I believe. **Outro** So keep the lights low, keep your voice soft, Keep every secret locked inside this house. I won’t let go, I won’t let you grow— I’d rather be the poison than watch you leave alone. Yeah… I’m toxic. And you’re still here.
