it's alright
i was the love
that wasn't really love to you
i was the love
that was really lust
i was the 2 a.m.
"U up?" text
i was never the girl
that you wanted for all time
but you?
you were the love
that i wanted for all time
the boy i wanted to escape
the noise of the world with
But it's fine
i'm fine knowing that i was
nothing but a good time
because at least
i was able to be yours
i just wish i wasn't yours to use
until you fell tired of me
