"Like a moth to a flame"- They say; you pull me in and I can't escape.
It's wrong, it's immoral, and yet it aches and burns holes through my heart.
I hate myself for it and hate you tenfold, for loving you both because I know it's wrong.
You must know, how could you not; the way I look at you like heaven on earth.
You have ruined me, ruined me for all the people I meet; for no one can gaze at my soul like your eyes do.
I can't have you and I know, no one is there in destiny for me.
I can't get you out of my head, can't get you out of my heart; and my heart breaks beautifully each time we are apart.
Every piece of myself, I gave it to you; don't you realize there is no one for me but you.
I know what makes you happy and I know it's not me.
So my love for you will never see the light of the day
I'd accept that too, knowing you'd always be a part of me.
You are woven into every inch of my soul
Yet there are parts of me you still don't know.
You are like that blanket which kept me warm on winter nights
But the cold got harsher, and I woke up shivering every time.
