Once A Cheater

By TakeMeAsIAm

I want a man who will treat me like dirt.
Someone to bring all my insecurities to the surface.

I want a man who doesn't know what he wants,
but who will string me along anyway.

I want to sit by the phone while you sleep with someone else.
I'll forgive you every time.

I want a man who will lie straight to my face.
Make me afraid to trust...afraid to take chances.

I want to hate myself because of you!
And be like all those girls I've always pitied.

All those girls
who once loved a cheater.
