Toxic Relations

Dependency Cycle

Toxic situationship

Got into a dependency cycle

Kept me from working

So you can use me and abuse me

Should had been stopped living for you

Nothing was enough for you

Putting all your toxic stress in me

Then slap me when I have a toxic explosion

Instead of comforting me

It's my fault I let the abused happen

Masked underneath love

Choke me to death I don't care

At least the toxic cycle that I'm in will end

Give and take

Control me, put my whole life at stake

Either I get abuse and misused or get put out

Stuck with no place to go

Feel like my life is not in my control
