I can still smell her fragrance on your shirt
Do you have to be under surveillance?
To stop the flirt
To stop the dirt
Supreme light of promises
That you would treat me like a Goddess
That’s a modest thought
But I don’t think it’s an honest one
Your lies would be flawless if you would keep them
I was unaware I was a temp
You sold me exotic dreams
While smoking hemp
Told me no one ever loved you
I promised I was here to love you
How can I give you my trust?
When I don’t even know if it’s lust
I left and now you’re lonely
They’re all giving you sex
And running back to their ex
They’re all giving you sex
And expecting their checks
You’re giving them specs
And lost my respect
It’s cool for a while
Until you’re alone in your room
When they pay you no mind
And you’re craving my love
That I once provided
You decided
And now we’re divided
And it doesn’t even matter
Because it was always one-sided
