** This is a work of fiction.
I’ve given all I have
You’ve taken everything from me
Do you need to have my soul
Or will you set me free
Leave my self-respect
It’s still somewhere deep inside
Let me walk away from you
While I still have some pride
I won’t give in to you
You won’t hurt me anymore
No longer blind to your charms
I pick myself off the floor
I’m stronger now, because of you
I face the future with no fear
I turn my back on all your lies
I won’t shed another tear
