Desire and guilt pull at me
I'm not this person
I don't slip
I don't dip my tongue
into the fires of temptation
but fuck, you break me
take these lines I've drawn
and fade them from black
to grey
I hate myself in this moment
while he's got his arms
wrapped around me
and I'm talking about you
like you don't make my heart ache
in all the wrong ways
in all the right ways
in all the ways I try to bury
Cause I know all the right things to say
how to talk loving shit about you
let the conversation shift
to things that matter to him
like your name is inconsequential
like I'm don't imagine
the way your lips
would feel on mine
or how badly I dream
of the way our bodies could collide
And I swear it's not fair
that I only get to choose one love
and that he's the one I won't leave
while thoughts of you
leave me guilty and wet
and hating myself tonight
I'm not this person
I don't slip
I don't dip my tongue
into the fires of temptation
but fuck, you break me
take these lines I've drawn
and fade them from black
to grey
I hate myself in this moment
while he's got his arms
wrapped around me
and I'm talking about you
like you don't make my heart ache
in all the wrong ways
in all the right ways
in all the ways I try to bury
Cause I know all the right things to say
how to talk loving shit about you
let the conversation shift
to things that matter to him
like your name is inconsequential
like I'm don't imagine
the way your lips
would feel on mine
or how badly I dream
of the way our bodies could collide

that I only get to choose one love
and that he's the one I won't leave
while thoughts of you
leave me guilty and wet
and hating myself tonight
