i can't get you out of my head
you're always there...all the time
i know we both have somebody
but i want so badly to call you mine
even if it's just for a little bit
one day—one night
i have to have you (so desperately)
it's just my conscience i fight
we both know it's wrong
to feel this way
to touch each other like this
there'll be hell to pay
but i don't want you to stop
and so it doesn't stop you
are you sure you want to go on?
oh god, i think i love you, too
what would they say if they found out?
because dear, we're their best friends
this'll be our little secret
we'll keep it to the end
why does this have to be so hard?
i can't hurt either of you
can't i just have you both?
i don't know what to do
because i love you as much
as i love her
if not equally
than just a little more

I wrote this at like, 4 am so it's not the best. I was going to tweak it, but I decided just to leave it raw, even if I don't really like it. I like the last line, but at the same time I don't think it fits.
Oh well.
