I promised myself
That I wouldn't let you get to me

That if you didn't text me,
I wouldn't text you

That if you didn't like me,
I would try
Oh, I would try to not like you  

But I broke my promise
You got to me

I'm addicted to you,
Like you're addicted to her

This viscous cycle
Where I love you,
But you chase her

I'm sitting here
In these empty halls
As you're in class,
She's running through your mind

I just know it.

I wish I could get over you,
Just end this

But every time I see you,
I'm reeled back in
Trying to push out the reality

The reality that you love her,
Not me.

But who was I kidding?
Who would ever love me;

With all the poison
Running through my veins.
