I'm the story you never told. And I'm telling your story now. I'm telling the secrets you want to hide but can't keep hidden. Listen, as the fire crackles and the cat curls up on your lap. Listen, as your hair stands at uncanny reflections. Listen to your heart, screaming. listen, and dream.

music

the music keeps playing

i was wrong
you knew how to whisper sweet nothings
must be some sort of genetic code

like
all boys will know how to
promise empty promises and whisper sweet nothings
in a girl's ear

you lick my ear
and ask me
how did that feel

i can only nod
words can't come out
my mind's a blank

you chuckle at the sounds i make
i feel my face turn red
i know i'm the only one affected here

our bodies pressed up against each other
only i can't get enough of you
you're just on for the fun

hips grinding
teeth knocking
you see the stars before i do

sometimes
i don't at all
but you just smirk and say good, wasn't it?

you get up
and pull up your pants
tugging at the waistbands

i just lie there
wondering why i put myself through it
got to be cause i'm in love with you

i tell you that
and you laugh
you know what we got is nothing, right?

you go back to her
and i to him
we have nothing in common anyway

and the music keeps playing
