I see you flirt, you take them to bed
Drunk with no judgement
Because of you
They hang from a single thread
You pull them in
And suck them dry
Never stopping to wonder
If its all a sin
But do you know how much it hurts
To be told so many lies
Just to get your ego stroked
Just to lift their skirts
Do you know how much I hurt
When I see you with one
One of your pleasure pawns
I need answers to the questions you always divert
You tell me they are just empty pleasure
Empty love
With no hearts to harm
But you don't have a heart to measure
Try to look through my eyes
For just a minute
Feel the pain of abandonment
My smile is just a disguise
The pain I feel
Is because of you
If I told you I loved you
Would you know it was real
Love is never empty.
