Since the day we met
I wondered if it was butterflies or moths fluttering in my stomach
Would you leave a hole behind?
Was what you were saying matching with the flutters in your mind?
Everyday since we've met
I gave you an extra piece of my heart as I fell more and more in love
My heart became less and less
But no amounts of my heart ever seemed enough
Since the day you've left
A void aches where my heart used to be
My pulse echos through what's now empty
Why couldn't you leave some of my heart for me?
A moth infestation, eating me alive, leaving behind nothing for me.
Since the day we met
The small amounts of love you gave were as addictive as cocaine
I could never ever get enough
and without you, I was left insane
Everyday we met
My fix of you got harder and harder to please
I was unhappy with how you made me feel
But I knew I couldn't cope if I ever saw you leave
Since the day you've left
I've been rocking, biting my nails down to the skin
Just one more taste of your poison
Your toxic touch I'm forgetting
Each bite of me you took, as tasteful as the last
But you ate so much of me
That I have nothing left to give, and now that you have all of me
I am the one left to fast
I am the one left with having to rebuild a whole new heart
This is why toxic love will never last
