The word feels foreign on my tongue Actions make me run and hide As if no one could ever love someone As hideous and ***** as me That's what you want me to believe That no one will ever love me for the way I am. So you sit there and whisper in my ear It's okay, he can touch you like that, this isn't wrong But it is He should treat me better. For a while, I told myself that I would figure you out I would understand why you are the way that you are I would fix you But it was never that simple Sometimes, people hurt people just to hurt them As if they find pleasure in it You loved to watch me squirm under your knife. I always thought you loved me But now the fog has cleared And I see that it was lust.

Fear of Love
The word feels foreign on my tongue Actions make me run and hide As if no one could ever love someone As hideous and ***** as me That's what you want me to believe That no one will ever love me for the way I am. So you sit there and whisper in my ear It's okay, he can touch you like that, this isn't wrong But it is He should treat me better. For a while, I told myself that I would figure you out I would understand why you are the way that you are I would fix you But it was never that simple Sometimes, people hurt people just to hurt them As if they find pleasure in it You loved to watch me squirm under your knife. I always thought you loved me But now the fog has cleared And I see that it was lust.
