My sadness is a toxin Of which I'm fully infected It shows in the bags on my eyes The cuts on my skin The bruises on my face I breathe it every day When I skip a meal Or skip a class (When you think about it, there's so many things to skip in a life) I feel it in my bones, my chest, my heart Weighing me down; suffocating under sheer pressure I've tried to cure myself With conversation, medication, psycho-analyzation But the sickness prevales; it's already latched into my lungs My sadness is a toxin Of which I want no one else to breathe in

Toxic
My sadness is a toxin Of which I'm fully infected It shows in the bags on my eyes The cuts on my skin The bruises on my face I breathe it every day When I skip a meal Or skip a class (When you think about it, there's so many things to skip in a life) I feel it in my bones, my chest, my heart Weighing me down; suffocating under sheer pressure I've tried to cure myself With conversation, medication, psycho-analyzation But the sickness prevales; it's already latched into my lungs My sadness is a toxin Of which I want no one else to breathe in
