The pain of giving a second chance to someone who cheated.
I don't have enough to do, but you
I have all the time for your neck,
and your eyes, and your lies
I have all the while
to just wait around
And admit it, you don't mind

I'd just sit here and beg for your
smile, and how obvious
that this is over
and we're feeding off scraps
but I'm hungry, and I'm tired,
and above all-

I'm alone in my heart.

I didn't think warmth in the bed
would be so toxic,
but when you have nothing to do,
you just lay and feel it fading,
this is so degrading,
laying next to you.
