Post 605: i Cheated on You (7/19/10)

I Cheated on You (3/13/10 c , 7/19/10 w)

Another lie i’ve told you
I’m tired of lying to your face
But you deserve more, deserve better
Better than this, than what i did to you

When you were away, on the other side of the moon
I cheated, i cheated on you
I could not resist her charms, or her visage
She seemed to have everything you, everything you were missing
I’m only so strong, and she whittled my defenses away
Then i woke up in the morning to see this wasn’t a dream
She was lying, lying naked next to naked me
I, i cheated on you

When we had that fight and you stormed off into the night
I thought you meant every word, every word you said
When you told me our love was dead
And our relationship would never survive
How was i to know, know that you were still in, still in my life

When you were away, on the other side of the moon
I cheated, i cheated on you
I could not resist her charms, or her visage
She seemed to have everything you, everything you were missing
I’m only so strong, and she whittled my defenses away
Then i woke up in the morning to see this wasn’t a dream
She was lying, lying naked next to naked me
I, i cheated on you

She made me, made me feel so alive
Like everything, everything was so right
Made me me feel how i did after our first night
But this was something, something new
Something that i’ve never before faced
In giving up in you i found my place
I found my place

When you were away, on the other side of the moon
I cheated, i cheated on you
I could not resist her charms, or her visage
She seemed to have everything you, everything you were missing
I’m only so strong, and she whittled my defenses away
Then i woke up in the morning to see this wasn’t a dream
She was lying, lying naked next to naked me
I, i cheated on you

Semantics may dictate what this is called
But i thought we were through
I apologize, apologize to you
I thought it was a weakness on my part, but now i know it’s true
The only cheating i ever did was being with you, being with you

Cheating myself for the convenience, never really knowing the sound of love’s call

When you were away, on the other side of the moon
I cheated, i cheated on you
I could not resist her charms, or her visage
She seemed to have everything you, everything you were missing
I’m only so strong, and she whittled my defenses away
Then i woke up in the morning to see this wasn’t a dream
She was lying, lying naked next to naked me
I, i cheated on you

But in losing you, in losing you i found something
I found something true
Something i would have never found with you
It sounds mean, but we both know it’s true
We both know it’s true
