Olivia Cure Meaning and Key Details

Olivia Rodrigo releases the official music video for 'the cure', a song about heartbreak and the struggle to heal from a toxic relationship.

Olivia Rodrigo - the cure [Official Music Video] ♪ (Lyrics):

Those beautiful girls keep filling my mind

I thought I'd tried hard enough, but they raised the standards

I thought this time I'd found the cure

Nights I lay in my room struggling with evil thoughts

So lonely it felt like I was on the moon

I thought I'd found the cure when I was with you

But my mind is poison

And my heart is full of doubt

My blood vessels are poisoned

And you tried to suck the venom out

It felt like healing

And I I know that's good for me

But it doesn't matter how you feel anymore

Love isn't medicine

It can't cure me

Before, every time we dated, my mind played a game

Counting how many people he slept with until I cried

I thought

this time I'd found a cure

I thought this time I'd found a cure

But I'm breaking

(breaking)

I'm falling apart

(falling apart)

I'm breaking down

(breaking down)

I'm breaking down

And my mind is poison

And my heart is full of doubt

My blood vessels are poisoned

And you tried to suck the venom out

It felt like healing

And I know it's good for me

But it doesn't matter how you feel anymore

Love isn't medicine

It can't cure me

Ohh

Because my love, I'm breaking

(breaking)

I'm falling apart

(falling apart)

I'm breaking apart

(breaking apart)

Breaking into pieces

(in pieces)

I'm falling apart

Why can't you mend me?

Why is it never enough?

Why can't you sew up the tear?

Why am I never truly satisfied?

It's never enough

All because your mind is poison

And your heart is full of doubt

Your bloodstream is poisoned

I tried so hard to suck the venom out

It felt like healing

And you know it's good for you

But how I feel doesn't matter anymore

Love isn't medicine

It can't cure you

Never will...
