You make me sick
And I’m not talking about a cough or a cold
But how I got caught up and let your venom enter my soul
Paralyzing me unable to break free
Unable to break free
Unable to break free…
Stuck
Between what we were
And reality
Because the reality is that you’re no longer with me …
Yet your venom still flows through me
Enough to remind me
To remind me
To remind me
Of how confident and fearless of the woman I used to be
Confident to speak my mind, show you my flaws and scars
Fearless to love you unconditionally
And was ready to be with you for eternity
Yet when I open my eyes reality set back in
No longer…
Confident
No longer …
Fearless
Now bitter and fragile
Bitter of how I let your venom blind me
Unable to read the lies your ass was giving me
Fragile still picking up pieces with tweezers
One by one
Because that’s how bad you’ve broken me…
Now when I meet someone new…they can see right through me
And every guy feels that it’s his duty to heal me…
Which frustrates me
Causing me to shut down and push them away
Because I’m waiting…
Waiting on what you say
Waiting on what you say
Waiting on what you say…
Waiting on your venom to exit me
So when my true love comes
He won’t have to find the antidote to fix this cold-blooded heart
That’s stuck between…
Of what we were
And
Reality.
