Again?
I can't say I'm surprised.
I've kissed your lips a few thousand times.
Sometimes they're plump and delicate,
other times thin and chapped.
They never fail to veil the same bullshit lies...
I eat them up. Sloppy salivated lies.
I'm addicted so leave me.
Sprawled out waiting for the next pair of lips
to suck me dry.

This story is, of course, as old as the phrase "as old as the hills", but you craft it in a way which makes it feel fresh for the duration. The only nod to outright cliche was L5. I liked the contrast between L3 and 4, and how vulgar and violent L6 through 9 are.
All critique JMHO. Thanks for the read.

'I can't say I'm surprised.
I've kissed your lips a few thousand times.
[The contrast is a great kick in. Baam. That is some start. The anti-romance tone is almost like a loud blaring horn. Holler.]
Sometimes they're plump and delicate,
other times thin and chapped.
[Nice contrast again. Graphic.]
They never fail to veil the same bullshit lies...
[Bullshit is slightly odd here from a grammatical PoV as well as content wise.
Largely unclassifiable, it is more or less
a noun. An alternative can work wonders.
Stale/rank etc. JMO]
I eat them up. Sloppy salivated lies.
(The second line is brilliant. Reminds me of a Pavlovian nightmare/Dogs. A great addition.]
I'm addicted so leave me wasted.
[I would suggest to end it at 'leave me']
Sprawled out, waiting for the next pair of lips
to suck me dry.'
[And start the sentence with 'Wasted' and gang up the rest. It will go with the flow and help set the mood of finality. JMHO.]
The last line sums it up very well. The poem screams of righteous rage and deepset anguish.
very effective in conveying its core emotion.

Thank you!
I've fixed the 'leave me' now I'm just wondering what to substitute with 'bullshit', it's taking me a while to find something that doesn't make it look even worse.
