Toxic

The door slammed straight on my face
And I'm still holding on to a tiny hope

Hoping you'll come back somehow
While deep down I know you won't

Your harsh voice rings in my ears again
Making me doubt everything we had

The bitter words cut through my soul
I want answers to the questions I have

Were we really toxic?
Are we better being apart?

Were we really that ascerbic?
Is it better to have a broken heart?

The silence around me feels so weird
Can't hear your footsteps anymore

Even though all these bruises are gone
My heart still feels unbearably sore

Don't know where you'll be by now
No idea how to cope with this alone

Don't know if I'll be able to get outta this mess
The only question in my mind since you've gone...

Were we really toxic?
Are we better being apart?

Were we really that ascerbic?
Is it better to have a broken heart?

And I know deep inside that what happened is for the best
And I know no wonder why I might be able to get some rest

From all the tense situations I've been suffering due to you
And all the grave decisions that I'll now take without you...

Were we really toxic?
Are we better being apart?

Were we really that ascerbic?
Is it better to have a broken heart?

Oh oh...
I know...

Yes we both were toxic
And we're better being apart
We were really quite ascerbic
And it's better to have a broken heart
