Masochist


Tell me you love me Even if you don't mean it It's just something that I need to hear right now But only from you As we snuggle up closer To each other and listen To all of the things we left Unsaid sweet nothings Although I hope this is more then nothing Because that would surely bring Tears to my already swollen eyes Maybe if I love you enough You'll grow to love me as well But even I know that's foolish Thinking of you night and day Because I have nothing better to do And I hope you do the same Maybe I'm just a silly girl And you're just trying to get lucky Yet luckily I have you now So why taint that with the future Tomorrow can bring a sickness That only true heartbreak can bring Me to my knees with sweet sorrow If you only see me As just another notch in your belt So please, just tell me That you love me even if The words don't ring true Because I want to hold onto this happiness I want to hold onto you tonight Without any feelings of dread for us Or that inevitable pain I'll feel When I wake up and realize that you're not there To pretend to love me any longer
