When Lust Overpowers Love

The sheer thought of regret
The little pain in the back of my mind

The knowledge that it won't happen again
The stupidity and lust I let get in the way

All I feel,betrayal
all I think,regret

How could I let you slip out of my fingers
The perfect quicksilver

Your sparkling brown eyes
the dorky t-shirts you used to wear

The pain I caused you is more than I can face
I can't look you in the eyes

Because of me you're no longer happy
because of me you're dead inside

i know you hate me
I know you'd rather die than give me another chance

I touched the fire and I was burned
I don't expect your forgiveness

All I ask for is your understanding that I screwed up
If I had the chance I would take it all back
