lyrics

He's so cute when he makes small talk
Always looks around when he stands in the hall
Like he's never been here before
Like he hasn't screwed me against these walls
I put on my best shirt and shorts
Wear my hair down to make him want me more
Watch my words so I linger in his thoughts
Let my heart blind me to his flaws
He's not that great has baggy eyes
Large nose and full of little lies
Always stutters when there's cracks in his disguise
He's so beautiful and makes me high

Love is a candy-coated pill
Goes down sweet then makes you ill
Has you leaning on a window sill
Watching the moon rise fighting the will
To walk away from the edge of his knife
And save yourself from the poison of his bite
Take a shot and down another pill
Tasting sweetness as he moves in for the kill
I'm withdrawing from this candy-coated pill
Toxic love making me ill

Vegan prince with gorgeous manly hands
Enters my flesh and drags them down my back
Stirs my insides and scrambles my soul
Gives me just enough to not let him go
And this is the language that we speak
Tell me I'm amazing then leave
Just a cold aquarian mystery
Sends me freefall in my insecurities
God nothing has made me bleed like this
Questioning the very reasons I exist
Withdrawing from the sickness of his kiss
Drained of any hope I'll be cured of this

Love is a candy-coated pill
Goes down sweet then makes you ill
Has you leaning on a window sill
Watching the moon rise fighting the will
To walk away from the edge of his knife
And save yourself from the poison of his bite
Take a shot and down another pill
Tasting sweetness as he moves in for the kill
I'm withdrawing from this candy-coated pill
Toxic love making me ill

God nothing has made me bleed this way
I'm just a stupid cliché
Withdrawing from the drug on his lips
Give anything to be free of this

Love is a candy-coated pill
Goes down sweet then makes you ill
Has you leaning on a window sill
Watching the moon rise fighting the will
To walk away from the edge of his knife
And save yourself from the poison of his bite
Take a shot and down another pill
Tasting sweetness as he moves in for the kill
I'm withdrawing from this candy-coated pill
Toxic love making me ill
