Toxic

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby, can't you see
I'm calling
A guy like you
Should wear a warning
It's dangerous
I'm fallin'

There's no escape
I can't wait
I need a hit
Baby, give me it
You're dangerous
I'm lovin' it

Too high
Can't come down
Losing my head
Spinning ‘round and ‘round
Do you feel me now?

With a taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic I'm slipping under
With a taste of a poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic

It's getting late
To give you up
I took a sip
From my devil's cup
Slowly
It's taking over me

Too high
Can't come down
It's in the air
And it's all around
Can you feel me now?

Taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic I'm slipping under
With a taste of a poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic

Taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic I'm slipping under
With a taste of a poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic

Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now

Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now

Lyrics:

Death is life, is death, is life, is death, is life, is
They're carving my name in the grave again
The flowers are fresh and their faces wet
My body has died, but I'm still alive
Look over your shoulder, I'm back from the dead
Lighting all your candles to draw me in
Saying all the same things, I'm gone this time
Your words mean nothing, so take 'em back
And meet me here across the plane
The other side, I'm not far
When you aren't around, I sink into the ground
I try to pretend I'm closer to you
Never understand it
You're always on my mind, I cannot help it
I don't wanna be carrying the weight on my shoulders
Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure
Immortal by design
I'll be meeting you here every time
Back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the- (I'm back)
Death, death, death (I'm back)
Death, death
(I'm back)
They're saying my name in their prayers again
I flicker the lights so they understand
I won't say goodbye, I'm right by your side
We're screaming and pleading, this separation ends
Doing all your witchcraft to pull me in
Burning all your sage to connect our line
I show my presence, you run away in fear of ghosts
I try to talk, the barriers are too strong
When you aren't around, I sink into the ground
I try to pretend I'm closer to you
Never understand it
You're always on my mind, I cannot help it
I don't wanna be carrying the weight on my shoulders
Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure
Immortal by design
I'll be meeting you here every time
Back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead
Please don't ever worry (back from the dead, back from the dead)
(I'm back from the dead, back from the dead)
I know it's morbid (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead)
But we all die one day (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead)
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the- (I'm back)



@jeushaneba.rad.2603

Today, I want to talk to you about the gospel of salvation according to Romans 6. The concept of sin is central to this discussion. Sin is the act of disobeying God's commands, and it has serious consequences. The Bible teaches that the penalty for sin is death, both physical and spiritual (Romans 6:23).

But there is good news. Through Jesus Christ, we have a way to be saved from our sins and have eternal life. Romans 6:23 goes on to say, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." This means that salvation is a free gift from God that we receive through faith in Jesus Christ.

So, how do we receive this gift of salvation? Romans 10:9 says, "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." This means that we need to confess our belief in Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross for our sins. By doing so, we are acknowledging that we are sinners in need of a savior, and that Jesus is the only way to be saved.

The significance of Jesus' sacrifice cannot be overstated. He died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice for our sins, taking the punishment we deserve so that we can be forgiven and reconciled to God. Through His resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, and offers us the gift of eternal life.

It is essential to understand that accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior is not merely a one-time decision, but a lifelong commitment. As we grow in our faith, we become more like Jesus, and our desire to follow His teachings increases. We are called to live a life of holiness and obedience to God's commands, not to earn our salvation, but as a reflection of our gratitude for what He has done for us.

I invite you to consider these teachings and make an informed decision about your faith. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you to do so today. Know that you are loved by God, and that He desires a personal relationship with you. May you experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing Him.

this comment is for non fans who are confused!!
Melanie has a character named "crybaby" who she portrays in all her albums. Melanie was bullied and called a crybaby as a kid for being emotional and sensitive which is where she got the name from. Her debut album "crybaby" tells the story of crybaby's birth and life as a young kid. it's a very deep album and the character goes through a lot. In her 2nd album "K-12" crybaby attends a weird school that's very messed up. she also made a film to go with it that's free on youtube called "K-12" as well. The movie was made in 2019 and ends on a cliffhanger (i won't spoil) Melanie released an EP in 2020 called "after school ". the EP is not connected to the storyline but is more so about Melanie's personal life as an adult. After that she then went on a hiatus until this year and dropped her third album "portals". We were left many years wondering what would happen after K-12 then in February 2023 Melanie randomly hit us with a teaser of crybaby's grave. Crybaby has somehow passed away and is now reincarnated as a faerie/siren. It's makeup, a prosthetic and body paint which takes about 2-3 hours to put on and she can see through tiny holes in the bottom pair of eyes. Melanie is currently working on a new film that'll finally show us what happened to crybaby. this album is the final one about this character too.

(some facts for new fans)
Melanie is known for having split dyed hair (inspired by cruella de vil) but decided not to give crybaby's new form the split hair because she wants to separate herself from the new crybaby.

Melanie loves reading tarot cards and in the scene where there are 10 swords in her body is inspired by a tarot card. "the ten of swords" meaning a painful yet inevitable ending or being pinned down by a multitude of things or situations. there are other meanings for this which yall can look up if u want but i feel like those are the main ones. Melanie has been playing this character in her music since 2015 and wants to move on from it but some fans love the old human version of crybaby and melanie from the crybaby era and they won't let her move on and grow. also technically, there are 9 swords in her body but i'm pretty sure her heel is supposed to represent the 10th.

In majority of her music videos there's always people in bunny masks because when she was young she had a pet bunny and one day found it decapitated so she likes to have people wear bunny masks in her music videos. each era the bunny masks evolve. okay maybe ill add more stuff later idk but ty for reading!

(typing this from may 7th) i just wanna say ty again to everyone who took time out of their day to read this long comment! it makes me happy knowing that more people are becoming fans of Melanie and i'm glad my comment is helping people understand the story!! :)
