stop dangling it in my face
holding your love in front of my wanting eyes
and grinning because you can see me salivate
and then pull it away
give it to her, the one who doesn't deserve it.
why don't you see through her guise?
see that I'm the one you should have?
understand that you cause much pain
within my tortured heart
I know it's not intentional
I know that you don't mean it
but you have a funny way of showing it.
holding me and kissing me
when she's not around
but never letting me forget
that she's the one you love.
and I'm sitting on the sidelines
forever pigeonholed
at square one.
