Song by my Persona Mike written by me @coolkidjunji / JMusic I keep pretending I can fix you, like I’m the cure for all your scars. But every time I try to hold you, I end up bleeding in your arms. (Symphonic Interlude – soft strings rising, distant choir) You say you love me when you’re lonely, you say you need me when you fall. But when the daylight hits your shadows, I’m the first one that you stall. (Orchestral swell – low brass, trembling violins) And I know, I know, I should’ve walked away by now. But your voice pulls me in, like a prayer I can’t renounce. You’re toxic, but I breathe you in, like poison dressed in porcelain. You break me just to pull me close, I’m dying slow, but you don’t know. You’re toxic, but I can’t let go, your darkness feels like home, I know. I’m falling where I shouldn’t be— you’re toxic, but you’re home to me. (Instrumental Interlude – piano arpeggios, wide strings, heartbeat drums) You only call me when you’re shaking, when all your demons start to scream. And I come running like a savior, just to drown inside your sea. You say I’m stronger than your chaos, but I’m the one who always bends. You turn my heart into a weapon, then you use it once again. (Symphonic break – choir pads, rising tension) And I know, I know, I’m just a chapter in your storm. But I stay, I stay, ’cause broken still feels like your warmth. You’re toxic, but I breathe you in, like poison dressed in porcelain. You break me just to pull me close, I’m dying slow, but you don’t know. You’re toxic, but I can’t let go, your darkness feels like home, I know. I’m falling where I shouldn’t be— you’re toxic, but you’re home to me. (Extended Orchestral Interlude – strings tremolo, brass hits, cinematic drums) Maybe I’m addicted to the pain, maybe I’m the one who needs the flame. Maybe loving you is just my way of burning down what’s left of me. (Final symphonic lift – full orchestra, emotional peak) You’re toxic, but I breathe you in, I lose myself beneath your skin. You break me just to feel alive— I’m holding on to your goodbye. You’re toxic, but I still believe there’s something left inside of me. I’m falling where I shouldn’t be— you’re toxic, but you’re home to me. (Outro Interlude – fading strings, soft piano, distant choir)
