I do not belong to you
I could never be completely yours
Or his... or hers...
They all come and go
Like minimum wage workers
They want more
I tease them with hints of heaven
Just to keep them immersed
In sweet hell
I tell him I love him
But my heart is ever changing
With him today, with her tomorrow
I will never see a white wedding dress
I'll be the devil's whore
For all my existence
Selling my dignity
For the thrill
Of night
Or his... or hers...
They all come and go
Like minimum wage workers
They want more
I tease them with hints of heaven
Just to keep them immersed
In sweet hell
I tell him I love him
But my heart is ever changing
With him today, with her tomorrow
I will never see a white wedding dress
I'll be the devil's whore
For all my existence
Selling my dignity
For the thrill
Of night

Very well expressed. Some people want to be possessed, even owned. Some want to be possessors, stake their claim and warn all others away. Others want to be free to explore the flavors in the donut box. The trouble is, when the flavors in the donut box only want to be eaten by a particular mouth, all the other hungry people keep trying to get their licks in. And then the donuts that want to spread their sprinkles around get snatched up by somebody who has a sprinkle fetish...
