Toxic Love
Story Untold Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fuck me up like you always do
I won′t go
'Cause you know I can′t live without you
Toxic love wearing off
Why is it so hard to let go of?

July of 2020
Things were kinda heavy
At least you were there for me
(You made me feel like I, feel like I)

Was maybe worthy of your time
Maybe you'd become mine
Couldn't get you out of my mind
(You made me feel alive, feel alive)
Yeah, I know that′s cute, but it didn′t last long

So fuck me up like you always do
I won't go
′Cause you know I can't live without you
Toxic love wearing off
Why is it so hard to let go of?
You use me to build yourself up
I became someone that I′m not
Toxic love wearing off
Why is it so hard to let go of?

You know all of my story
You use it against me
I know that you're not sorry
(Yeah, I know you like that, yeah, I know you like that)

When I′m sad and lonely
You hate to see me happy
Pain is all that I see
(Whenever I look at, whenever I look at you)

But then I think back to
All the good times and the incredible sex
Now the same bedroom I used to lay with you
Is full of photographs from the past
And memories that went by so fast
I should've known it wouldn't last
Our love is made of glass

So fuck me up like you always do
I won′t go
′Cause you know I can't live without you
Toxic love wearing off
Why is it so hard to let go of?
You use me to build yourself up
I became someone that I′m not
Toxic love wearing off
Why is it so hard to let go of?
(Why is it so hard to let go of?)
(Why is it so hard to let go of?)

You use me to build yourself up
I became someone that I'm not




Toxic love wearing off
Why is it so hard to let go of you?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Story Untold's "Toxic Love" delve into the complexity and struggles of a toxic relationship. The singer is deeply entangled in a toxic love affair, unable to break free despite knowing the toxicity of the relationship. They express their dependency on the other person, acknowledging that they cannot live without them, which highlights the deep emotional attachment and the power dynamics at play.


The opening lines, "Fuck me up like you always do, I won't go, 'Cause you know I can't live without you," reveal the cycle of emotional manipulation that this toxic love has created. Despite recognizing the harm caused, the singer feels trapped and unable to walk away. This highlights the addictive and self-destructive nature of toxic relationships.


The lyrics also touch upon the temporal aspect of the relationship, specifically mentioning July of 2020, which hints at a specific time when things were intense and emotionally heavy. The singer reminisces about the brief period when they felt valued and worthy of the other person's attention. However, this feeling quickly fades away, emphasizing the ephemeral nature of the positive aspects in the relationship.


The lyrics reflect on the deep pain and manipulation experienced within the toxic relationship. The other person knows the singer's vulnerabilities and uses them against them, making it difficult for the singer to escape the cycle of toxicity. There is a stark contrast between feeling sad and lonely and the enjoyment the other person takes in watching the singer suffer. This contrast highlights the power dynamics and the unhealthy pleasure derived from causing pain.


The lyrics conclude with a reflection on the past and the realization that the love shared was fragile like glass. The prota

I should've known it wouldn't last
I should have realized it wouldn't endure


Our love is made of glass
Our love is fragile and easily broken

1) Red, b-l-o-o-d o-a-t-h color (signing away your life), check
2) Black and white, equating good and bad, a meaningless attempt to convey superficial knowledge, check
3) Song about something negative, check
4) In a cube, a representation of the Literal Cubes In H-e-l-l (the place you will end up for writing this song unless you pray for forgiveness), check
5) Name of the band is "Story Untold", a reference to how you will be forgotten in H-e-l-l forever as a nameless, undifferentiated s-u-f-f-e-r-e-r, forever. Not joking. Check.

Is this fame worth your s-o-u-l?

Is listening to this song as an audience member worth your relationship with The Lord, J-e-s-u-s, The C-h-r-i-s-t, of Nazareth, the Only True Son of G-o-d (the S-p-i-r-i-t made F-l-e-s-h)?

G-o-d is good always and will forgive you and bless you with everything your heart desires, but you turn your back on Him. Taken in by a l-i-e. Very unlucky of you.

R-e-p-e-n-t.
