My Toxic Love

My dear missus, tell me what you want to hear.

Is it something that delights those small ears?

Or is it something that's going to make you squirm in your bed, then you'd wish you didn't know.

Is it something that will make you want me more? Or is it something that's gonna give you sleepless nights, then you will question why you ever let me in your life.

The truth will break you, should i serve it raw? or should i coat it with a lie?

Are you sure you want to risk it? Curiosity killed the cat, dig deep you'll find it's skull.

I want to shield you from the realities, cuz you wanted a love so ideal.

I don't want you to have a cold feet, stepping into another love lake.

I don't want you to be scared of opening a new closet, becuase of the skeletons you found in mine.

So I'm going to keep you in the dark, dance with you under the spotlight, build you beautiful castles in the air, so you can crown your hopes there.

Of course it sounds crazy, i know. I should have told you earlier, oh yes.

I guess i just lack courage to own up to my actions, maybe I'm a coward, yeah i am.

But whatever it is, i just don't want to be the reason you'll be scared to love again, to trust again.

It sounds selfish of course, you should know, but it will break me seeing the truth break you.

Tell me if you still wanna know, tell me if you are strong for this.

The truth is bitter, it's gonna take you a while to recover.

The truth will break you, should i serve it raw? or should i coat it with a lie?

Are you sure you want to risk it? Curiosity killed the cat, dig deep you'll find it's skull.
