Lyrics
Intro
Mm
You got a way of staying
Long after you're gone
Verse 1
I found your shadow in my room
Hanging from the back of my door
Thought I cleared you out for good
But somehow you're everywhere once more
Every word you ever said
Still circles like a satellite
I hate the way it echoes back
On the nights I can't shut off my mind
Pre-Chorus
You left fingerprints
Underneath my skin
And I'm still trying
To wash them off again
Chorus
Get your toxins out of me
Running through my bloodstream
Like a fever I can't break
Like a habit I can't shake
You took up every empty space
Now I'm pulling you away
I don't want your memory
Living underneath my veins
Get your toxins
Out of me
Verse 2
You wore honesty so well
I almost thought it could be true
Funny how the sweetest mouth
Could leave the deepest bruise
Now I hear your name and laugh
At all the damage that it did
You were never what I wanted
Just something I got used to
Pre-Chorus
You left fingerprints
Underneath my skin
And I'm still trying
To wash them off again
Chorus
Get your toxins out of me
Running through my bloodstream
Like a fever I can't break
Like a habit I can't shake
You took up every empty space
Now I'm pulling you away
I don't want your memory
Living underneath my veins
Get your toxins
Out of me
Bridge
What the hell was I defending?
What was I trying to save?
You built a fire in my head
Then watched it burn for days
And every promise that you made
Was smoke above the flame
So tell me why it took this long
To finally walk away
Breakdown
I don't miss you
I miss who I was
Before I learned
How to survive your love
Final Chorus
Get your toxins out of me
Running through my bloodstream
Like a fever I can't break
Like a habit I can't shake
You don't get another piece of me
You don't get another night
I'm letting all the poison leave
And watching it disappear
Get your toxins
Out of me
Out of me
Out of me
Outro
The air feels different now
I can finally breathe
