overdose

When the dust finally settled and
He decided to leave once and for all
I watched him walk away
I said to myself
There goes the most unremarkable man
This world has ever seen

One thought that power equated consent
One thought I'd be good just to pay half his rent
One got my body, but he freed me from ghosts
Even though it wasn't love, well I loved him the most

Oh I pick broken lovers where I go
My heart's blind we all know how this goes
Hopeless romantic mess, the story unfolds
If toxic men are a drug, I just might overdose

One acted like I owed him all the stars
One wanted kids, and he'd already named ours
One clung to my kindness, held on for dear life
By the first week he swore I was
Supposed to be his wife

It sounds impossible
But not improbable
That I'm at fault
That I'm the problem

One thought that he could break me
But somehow he couldn't see
You can take what isn't yours
But the thrill is only temporary

If you think you can own me that easy
You have no clue what's to come
Call me a bitch if you want to
But you're the obsessed one
