Batrachotoxin and cyanide
C5H10, I'm dying inside
Sometimes alexithymic, sometimes volatile
Throw potassium nitrate in and watch this place blow up
I was the gas, you were the spark
That lit up my almost-frozen heart
You helped me live through the dark
Tore the suffocating lack of photons apart
But I, being stupid, forced you away
Took for granted the time you wanted to stay
Now you're gone and all I have to say is
Fun and games, and Bunsen flames
They lit me from the inside-out
Paranoid this was a game
I shut the door and locked you out
Hydrochloric acid forced its way out of my throat
No, you can't have chemistry with me
Because I'm exothermic, baby
Throwback to that day when we first met
We were in the lab, working 'til the sun had set
You smiled at me, I looked away
And that concluded the very first day
But I thawed a bit and thought you were fine
I didn't know you really wanted to be mine
After we started, I pushed you away too many times (Hey)
Fun and games, and Bunsen flames
They lit me from the inside-out
Paranoid this was a game
I shut the door and locked you out
Hydrochloric acid forced its way out of my throat
No, you can't have chemistry with me
Because I'm exothermic, baby
Trust issues been plaguing me for too long
How was I to know that you were right and I was just wrong?
Freaked out when you said you loved me to my face
Made a big mistake and so I got replaced
So add a lot of hydrogen to a little spark
And boom! I'm crying in my room, sure to meet my doom
Fun and games, and Bunsen flames
They lit me from the inside-out
Paranoid this was a game
I shut the door and locked you out
Hydrochloric acid forced its way out of my throat
No, you can't have chemistry with me
Because I'm exothermic, baby
