[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
It's all a game, isn't it?
Sugar-coated poison
[Verse 1]
You walk into the room, lighting up the space
A mask of perfection glued onto your face
You tell me all the things I'm dying to hear
Whispering sweet nothings to calm all my fears
But there’s a coldness behind those emerald eyes
A master of shadows, you’re good at the lies
[Chorus]
You’re toxic, baby, but you’re so refined
A beautiful addiction, playing with my mind
You pull me in close, then you push me away
A charming illusion that leads me astray
Manipulation is your favorite art
You break me in pieces then call it a start
[Verse 2]
Every apology sounds like a lullaby
I know it’s scripted, but I let it slide by
You make me feel special, like I’m the only one
But I’m just a moth flying straight for your sun
Burning my wings while you smile and you watch
Caught in the trap, yeah, I’m deep in your clutch
[Bridge]
How do you do it? How do you stay so calm?
Applying the poison, then acting the balm
I’m tangled in webs that you wove in the dark
Leaving me hollow, just missing the spark
[Chorus]
You’re toxic, baby, but you’re so refined
A beautiful addiction, playing with my mind
You pull me in close, then you push me away
A charming illusion that leads me astray
Manipulation is your favorite art
You break me in pieces then call it a start
[Outro]
Yeah, you’re charming
So charming
But you’re killing me slow
Yeah, you’re killing me slow
(Fade out)
