From the beginning, I knew this was all about you
You recognized me in the car
With the man you thought would take you far
From you

I was there from the start
When he molested your heart
You turned your attention to me
So I put you on a silver screen

I told you "Little girl, I know you'll make it in this fucked up world"
She told me I was "too good" to gas myself in the desert like I thought I should

And then we made a viral kind of love
Until we spiraled from that famous drug
We made a viral kind of love
Until we spiraled from that famous drug

The happy years that we had only make me feel sad now
It feels like a dream
And people stuck in the past tore into us
With a venom that just wouldn't leave

It poisoned you and it poisoned me
They poisoned themselves just like a Hollywood scene
And I knew
When you met him, it was already through

But I can feel it in my bones, girl
The memory is far from leaving you
But now I know what it means to have a woman
Who finally loves me too

Because we made a viral kind of love
Until we spiraled from that famous drug
We made a viral kind of love
Until we spiraled from that famous drug

It was a virus living in our blood
It was a viral kind of love
