Don't pretend that you love me because I know it's a lie,
I can tell by the way you keep shifting your eyes.
I could tell by the urgency I felt in your lips,
That you wanted more than I wanted to give.
There was no love when your hands crept up my shirt,
Just lust and the frustration that you couldn't do that with her.
And though I blame you for everything that went wrong,
I realize now that it's not all your fault.
You used me for my body but I used you to feel loved.
And after I got attached I realized that it always went back to her,
I'd have you for the hour, but she'd have you always and forever.
And when I saw you together for the very first time,
I realized I imagined that love in my mind.
It killed me to know you got what you wanted,
And I was tossed aside, so easily forgotten.
I think that I loved you for all the wrong reasons.
