burn

 
dining on self hatred
my razor shape feelings turn inward
inflicting real damage

insulted trust, I can't rectify
the feelings I feel, with the honesty of the moment
emotional larceny, I feel you owe me
your love exchanged for mine
but it's not like that

one of us always burns brighter
we take turns ignoring each other
vulnerable when the power shifts
needy rebellion, I need you more right now
sanctuary in soul I count on you

fractured hurt, my pain makes me cruel
misunderstood vanity, I used to be your beauty Queen
now I feel not so hot

intriguing to men looking in
but you know my magic
impressive envy, I hurt when you look elsewhere
infatuated lust, I look elsewhere to
but we both know the truth we're assholes

inflection of love, my loyalty for you is unquestionable
my soul attached to yours
to hurt you, would be to hurt me
