Poison
Gurldoll Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Died for you, oh
Died for you, oh
Died for you, oh
Died for you, oh
You destroyed me

Faces looking strange, I second guess the placement
Robbed of pieces smashed at hands of yours
Are we really human if the face is blank
My subtleties the making of your poison

The making of your poison
The making of your poison
The making of your poison
The making of your poison
Died for you, you destroyed me
Died for you, you destroyed me
Died for you, you destroyed me
Died for you, you destroyed me

Oceans worth of space, much rather far away
The aching hardens right down to the core
Wishing is a game, much rather to not play
Possession and devoured by the poison
The poison
The poison




The poison
You destroyed me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics appear to be about a toxic relationship that resulted in one person feeling destroyed by the other. The repetition of "died for you" throughout the song suggests that the singer has sacrificed a lot for their partner, perhaps even to the point of losing themselves in the relationship. The line "faces looking strange, I second guess the placement" indicates that the singer no longer recognizes themselves because of how their partner has treated them. The reference to being "robbed of pieces smashed at hands of yours" further emphasizes the idea that the singer has been broken by their partner's actions.


The chorus with the repetition of "the making of your poison" suggests that the singer has realized that their partner's actions are toxic and damaging. The reference to not being "really human if the face is blank" could be interpreted as the singer feeling dehumanized by their partner's treatment of them. The line "oceans worth of space, much rather far away" suggests that the singer wants to be free from their partner's grasp and escape the relationship entirely. However, the line "wishing is a game, much rather to not play" could indicate that the singer is struggling to let go of their partner despite how toxic the relationship has become.
