Listen, I Was Lonely

Listen, I was lonely Thought you understood Said I want to keep it simple Told me that you could Just a sexual distraction Two souls in need of touch Some light within the darkness Be good for both us us We satisfied the hunger As our bodies intertwined Your skin all damp and salty Your swollen lips on mine This was never serious Just a primal, carnal need To fill the ache, the loneliness To quench the thirsty seed Never meant to hurt you Or make you fall apart You knew of my intentions That you didn't have my heart Now I need to walk away Have to set you free Listen , I was lonely There is no you and me
