My stomach turns once more
Though I wish to god it wouldn't
THought that things could be different this time
So sorry that they couldn't
Your words all sound so perfect
And you always call me when you say
But there's still something that I'm missing
This void won't go away
He's all too wrong for me
And I know it's just for fun
But I just can't seem to stop it
Though you'll hate me when I'm done
Sweet little lies poured from my mouth
Didn't know quite how to act
I didn't think they were untrue then
But now I wish I could take them back
You're so near to all I've been searching for
I don't know why I'm pushing you away
You're everything I've ever wanted from a guy
I guess I just don't want it today
He's everything I avoid in men
Don't know why I even bother
Wish I had my mom's devotion
Instead of the sex drive of my father
Couldn't bear to answer your phone call
When I was holding on to his hand
How could I get myself into this?
I never even wanted a man
You're probably far too good for me
And I know he's not good enough
It seems to be an easy decision
Don't know why it's been so tough
I can't look you in the eye
The guilt just eats me whole
So many things I need to tell you
But I can't bear to crush your soul
What do you even see in me?
What don't I see in you?
What could I possibly see in him?
What in the hell am I going to do?
Don't know quite how to tell you
My web of lies has been born
Don't know if I want both or neither
And it kills me when I'm torn

I know exactly how you feel. I was at this stage and in a way am at the moment. Karl has been so nice to me and kind and helpful... I just been fooling around and it's not fair on him he deserves better than me I know that. Thanks for sharing I feel the exact same and it's very painful. But I guess if we did it we deserve to be in this little shallow place...
