Toxic
He seemed so nice at first
So kind and so easygoing
I had no idea that actually
It was a grand act he was showing
Time crawled by, day by day
Cracks appeared in his armor
He was no knight, for sure
And he certainly was no charmer
Looking in the rearview
If only I could go back
I would never date him
I'd just give him a hard slap
Almost a year after we began
Things unraveled like a wire
We parted ways, and then
I burned his pictures in a fire
I'm happy now, without him
He was only a nightmare
I hope he is miserable now
That would only be fair
So goodbye, my nightmare
I hope you never forget
What you lost, all because
You were nothing but Toxic
