The inertia of love is the only thing that makes you go forth even though you know that it is not working anymore…
This is Allen Centeno’s “Intoxicated”. A song about a toxic relationship. It tells the story of his past relationship where his ex-boyfriend cheats on him on speed dating apps like “Tinder”. The funny thing was that his ex, even though caught in the act, thought cheating didn’t mean anything and couldn’t even realize that what he was doing was hurtful and was destroying Allen’s trust for him.
Maybe out of being a martyr, out of love or just out of mere stupidity, even after all the lies, Allen, frustrated, angry but so in love, couldn’t let go of him. This track is the prelude of the second single “How To Forget A Fucker” where the story revolves on the difficulty on how to get over an ex even though that person broke your heart into million pieces.
Here are the lyrics:
Intoxicated
1.
You used to bring so much love at making me feel nice
That kind of lust was so awesome you’re making me feel right
Now you’re intoxicating, yeah
You were so blind you couldn’t see what was missing in my life
Mouth was so dry you couldn’t kiss me right, left me hanging on my side
Now you’re intoxicating, yeah
Chorus
You made me see what was lacking in me
You feed me poison so I can’t escape the trap that you built
I’m not naive, bitch, don’t call me “baby”
Just keep your Tinder on and maybe you’ll find just what you need
What’s up with me? I can’t seem to break free
Intoxicating, suffocating, gosh, you’re hurting my brain
Hey
2.
You think that I’m privileged ’cause you’re staying by my side
Like the hundred boys that you’re fucking then you look into my eyes
Now I’m intoxicated, yeah
You sound so dumb you’re so convinced what you did wasn’t so bad
But I guess that I’m just stupid I’m still falling for your lies
Now I’m intoxicated, yeah
Chorus
You made me see what was lacking in me
You feed me poison so I can’t escape the trap that you built
I’m not naive, bitch, don’t call me “baby”
Just keep your Tinder on and maybe you’ll find just what you need
What’s up with me? I can’t seem to break free
Intoxicating, suffocating, gosh, you’re hurting my brain
Hey
3.
You used to bring so much love at making me feel nice
That kind of lust was so awesome you’re making me right
Now you’re intoxicating, yeah
Chorus
You made me see what was lacking in me
You feed me poison so I can’t escape the trap that you built
I’m not naive, bitch, don’t call me “baby”
Just keep your Tinder on and maybe you’ll find just what you need
What’s up with me? I can’t seem to break free
Intoxicating, suffocating, gosh, you’re hurting my brain
Hey
