toxic energy

(album: in loving memory - 2022)

From the moment that I met you
You had powers over me
Shoulda known, I shoulda known
You were toxic energy

You're lonely, addicted
You clench your fists and quit it
I'm friends with your sickness
I'm tired of having to fix it
These white walls and white lines
Remind me of the bad times
Alone with you in revery
Erase me, forget me

From the moment that I met you
You had powers over me
Shoulda known, I shoulda known
You were toxic energy
You were lightning, you were cocaine
You were everything between
Shoulda known, I shoulda known
You were toxic energy
Whoa, toxic energy
Whoa, toxic energy

You're lonely, addicted
You clench your fists and quit it
Your bitter heart is freezing
Anxiety, thoughts fleeting
Can't fix you, removed you
From flames that consume you
You knew me, I knew you
I changed and outgrew you

From the moment that I met you
You had powers over me
I should've known, I should've known
You were toxic energy
You were lightning, you were cocaine
You were everything between
I should've known, I should've known
You were toxic energy

Now I'm all alone in this big, ole house
I wonder if I'll ever make it out
I'm all alone in this big, ole house
I think it's gonna be a while (I think it's gonna be a while)
I'm all alone in this big, ole house
I wonder if I'll ever make it out (I wonder if I'll ever make it out)
I'm all alone in this big, ole house
I think it's gonna be a while

I think it's gonna be a while
(I think it's gonna be a while)
Whoa, toxic energy
Whoa, toxic energy

(Whoa, ha-ha)
