Toxic but True

I say I’m independent 
but I’m lonely when alone 
I say I don’t need you 
but want to see ur name calling my phone

every time you call 
I say oh no not again 
meanwhile I’m wishing I could answer 
i still say I love you in my head 

I tell my girls it’s over 
deep down I want it to be true 
instead I’m addicted to your poison
still inhaling every one of your fumes 

i hate you but still want you 
how is that not toxic?
you make me cry then you make me cum 
I swear that  be psychotic 

I shoulda kept you blocked 
moved on and dissapeared
show you I’m better off 
and not let the fake   interfere 

I know they all be judging 
, I would be too
screaming out  “ITS FOR THE BETTER ” 
when Deep down my heart knows it’s true
