The Cheater and The Liar
The cheater's perspective:
I suddenly found my back against the wall
I was slowly dying on the inside
You found another love
Who made you see the world differently
And loved you in return unconditionally
He was our little bundle of joy
And he had your complete attention
You no longer lusted after me
Because HE became your world
I became just noise in the background
For seventeen years I was faithful to you
Until one day I broke
Not bad for a musician
Considering that women were constantly throwing themselves at me
They would come at me from every direction
There was even that time after a gig
When the twins somehow snuck into my hotel room
And got into the shower with me
But I was a good boy then
I resisted every temptation
I did it for you
I did it for us
I did it for God
However, every man has his breaking point
And that point finally came for me
I was tired of going after it with you
It was your turn to chase me
But you wouldn't even look at my direction
And so, I looked elsewhere
And that's how I ended up having an affair
I am a cheater, but I love you still
The liar's perspective:
How could you risk throwing it all away?
I gave you all of me
My heart, my soul, my life
I bore you a son
I painstakingly went through 36 hours of labor
In the most natural and intimate way possible
In our home, on our bed, on the hottest day of the year
Without an air conditioner and without any help from any drug
I was as hardcore as they came
I did it for you
I did it for us
I did it for God
Seventeen years ago, you made a promise to me
We made a promise to each other
Maybe I deserve this betrayal
After all, I did lie to you about all the men
I had slept with before you and I ever became an item
For seventeen years, I kept the truth hidden from you
I didn't think it mattered
Because none of it has to do with who we are today
And what we have now
Or does it? I'm not certain.
Back then, I was a whore and you were a virgin
I was merely trying to protect your innocence and purity
If you had known just how much I slept around in the past,
would you have ever given me a chance to be your wife?
Would your everyday-bible-reading-self have found it in your heart
to forgive me and have mercy on me?
I should've at least given you the chance to decide for yourself
I am a liar, but I love you still.
