Detox

*(Verse 1)*

These withdrawals are vicious, they're carving me out,

Every memory’s a venom, a scream, a shout.

I’m purging the love that poisoned my veins,

Detoxing the heart—but it’s not just the pain.

*(Pre-Chorus)*

Sweat drips like sin, the fever consumes,

The ghost of your touch still echoes in my wounds.

Chained to your scent, I claw to get free,

But every moment without you is killing me.

*(Chorus)*

It’s a detox, the cure’s a curse,

Ripping you out, but I only feel worse.

Flushed your name, but it’s etched in my skin,

Healing’s a battle I’m not sure I’ll win.

*(Verse 2)*

Cold nights, hot flashes, trembling like prey,

Your shadows haunt each waking day.

The remedy’s bitter; you were my sweet,

Now I’m choking on hope and tasting defeat.

*(Pre-Chorus)*

Sweat drips like sin, the fever consumes,

The ghost of your touch still echoes in my wounds.

Chained to your scent, I claw to get free,

But every moment without you is killing me.

*(Chorus)*

It’s a detox, the cure’s a curse,

Ripping you out, but I only feel worse.

Flushed your name, but it’s etched in my skin,

Healing’s a battle I’m not sure I’ll win.

*(Bridge)*

Every heartbeat’s a scream; every breath’s a fight,

I bleed out the addiction, but lose my light.

Your absence is the medicine, the antidote,

But as I detox, I’m left just a ghost.

*(Final Chorus)*

It’s a detox, the cure’s a curse,

Ripping you out, but I only feel worse.

Flushed your name, but it’s etched in my skin,

Healing’s a battle I’m not sure I’ll win.

*(Outro)*

And when the purge is over, who will I be?

A hollow shell or someone free?

Detoxing my heart, I burn it all down,

From ashes I'll rise—or I’ll drown.
