Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Call us what we are, toxic from the start
Can't pretend that I was in the dark
When you met my friends, didn't even try with them
I should've known it then that you were
[PreChorus]
Jealous and possessive
So manipulating
Honestly impressive
You had me participating
[Chorus]
Back then, when I was running out of your place
I said, "I never wanna see your face"
I meant I couldn't wait to see it again
We were toxic till the end
Uh-huh, 'cause even when I said it was over
You heard, "Baby, can you pull me in closer?"
You were plotting how to stay in my head
We were toxic till the end
[Verse 2]
Ladies and gentlemen
I present to you, the ex
[Verse 3]
His favorite game is chess, who would ever guess?
Playing with the pieces in my chest
Now he's on the screen, saying, "Don't leave"
You stole that line from me 'cause you're just
[PreChorus]
Jealous and possessive
So manipulating
Honestly impressive
You had me participating
[Chorus]
Back then, when I was running out of your place
I said, "I never wanna see your face"
I meant I couldn't wait to see it again
We were toxic till the end
Uh-huh, 'cause even when I said it was over
You heard, "Baby, can you pull me in closer?"
You were plotting how to stay in my head
We were toxic till the end
End, end
[Bridge]
I can forgive you for a lot of things
For not giving me back my Tiffany rings
I'll never forgive you for one thing, my dear
You wasted my prettiest years
[Chorus]
Back then, when I was running out of your place
I said, "I never wanna see your face"
I meant I couldn't wait to see it again
We were toxic
Uh-huh, 'cause even when I said it was over
You heard, "Baby, can you pull me in closer?"
You were plotting how to stay in my head
We were toxic till the end
[Chorus]
End, end
We were toxic till the end
End, end
