Me Instead

By Kainoa

Close your eyes
Shut them tight
Think of all you've caused tongiht
You left with HER
You went without a care
"Just a friend..."
You said.
You should have been with me instead

Close your eyes
Shut them tight
Remember all you've done tonight
Did you kiss her
Hold her hand
or want to
"No..." you told me
When you finally came home
"I told you... just a friend..."
You said.
You should have been with me instead

Close your eyes
Shut them tight
know all you've said tonight
Did you tell her you love her
Even hint that you care
What does she know about our daughter?
What about me...your wife?
"I'm just a friend..."
You said.
You should have been with me instead

Close you eyes
Shut them tight
Look at those you've hurt tonight
With your eyes closed
Imagining ME
As you fuck HER...
"She's just a friend..."
to her you say
If I'm just a friend,
Should I beLIEve what you said?
"I'm sorry Babydoll,
I shoud have been with YOU instead..."
