lyrics

You took the credit when I did the work
I made you feel better, then you questioned my worth

Well, it's not first time it's happened
And I'm tired of understanding
All the reasons why I should just let it go
You built your precious bubble, on the stabbed backs and rubble
And I think it's time that someone let you know

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Spit out the bits and build me up again

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Then back to normal, we're best of friends

It's not your fault, it's always mine
Should've been more careful to read your mind

Let me say congratulations, for solving the equation
To a problem only you alone perceived
When you wake up in the morning
And you're looking in the mirror
Do you see the void that's staring straight at me

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Spit out the bits and build me up again

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Then back to normal, we're best of friends

Maybe it's my failure
That I stayed so long
Maybe you're in trouble
If you think this is your song

(Yeah)

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Spit out the bits and build me up again (Again, again, again, again)

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Then back to normal (Back to normal)

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Spit out the bits and build me up again (Again, again, again, again)

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Then back to normal (Back to normal)

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Spit out the bits and build me up again (One more time guys)

You're a
Black hole taking your toll
Crushing my spirit and swallow my soul
Then back to normal, we're best of friends (Friends)
