Toxic Habits

Power of deception

I’ll make you think I’m special

you’ll believe you’re safe with me.

You’ll tell me all your secrets

as you fall in love with me.

I’ll promise to guard your heart

and catch you when you’re falling.

As we approach the pivotal moment

you’ll find out that I was lying.

I’ll show you I am no different,

as your heart shatters into pieces.

By then it’ll be to late to leave

your hearts already invested

in the imaginary future you’ve created.

I made you believe the hard days were gone

now the pain’s only beginning.

I’ll turn all that was once love

into resentment fueled hatred.

That’s my kind of magic.

I’ll test your love and devotion

to see how long you put up with it.

Only when you’re a shell of who you were

will I know you truly love me.
