I once could look in the mirror and smile
But now this face disgusts me
I used to be able to hold my head high
Now I hold it down shamefully
After one momentary act of madness
I lost everything in a second
Loneliness and contempt for myself
Was all my future now beckoned
A breaking of faith due to one kiss
I never stopped to think
A feeling of flattery and desire
Would take me to infidelities brink
You were a dear friend to me
Your husband was a no go
But I was a betrayer of trust
I sunk to depths so low
I violated our friendship
Threw it away with a kiss
We have both put you in hell
No sorry will cover all of this
My face of untrueness
I can never look at the same
For hurting you dear friend
I'll forever hold it down in shame
