[Verse 1]
You said you’re “fine
” then you cut your eyes
Across the room like I’m someone you survived
Every joke you drop
Feels like a warning sign
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m so tired of being used
Like a song stuck in your queue
Play me when you’re bored
Then skip when I break through
[Chorus]
We’re the love and venom
Sweet tongue
Then you wreck it all
Every what-if ending
Playing on repeat in my skull
We’re a could’ve been anthem
Fading as the credits roll
Love and venom
You’re sugar
Then you sting my soul
[Verse 2]
All our friends say we “almost worked”
Like that makes up for how much this still hurts
Every midnight call
Echoes like a half-learned verse
[Pre-Chorus]
You keep pulling on this thread
Tie me close
Then leave me spread
Between the truth and what you said
And all the futures in my head
[Chorus]
We’re the love and venom
Sweet tongue
Then you wreck it all
Every what-if ending
Playing on repeat in my skull
We’re a could’ve been anthem
Fading as the credits roll
Love and venom
You’re sugar
Then you sting my soul
[Bridge]
Cut deep when you said
“We were almost
Almost perfect”
Could’ve been forever
Now it’s just a twisted chorus (oh)
Used my heart as decoration
In your little highlight reel
Call it love
Call it venom
Either way
I know it’s real
[Chorus]
We’re the love and venom
Sweet tongue
Then you wreck it all
Every what-if ending
Playing on repeat in my skull
We’re a could’ve been anthem
Fading as the credits roll
Love and venom
You’re sugar
Then you sting my soul
Love and venom
We’re the pop song I can’t let go
