I've fallen in love once
With a man who demanded so much I gave up half of myself or maybe it was all of myself I don't know don't remember.
I gave up too much and he gave nothing
He demanded more and more until there was none of myself left.
I was a doll he could dress up with absolutely no personality, why need one when he could give me one.
No career I've given up everything I spent years building for a man
You see I was successful once
You doubt me but you see I have the degrees, had the six figure job
I was successful once and I gave it all up for a man. A boy and he as I have said gave nothing. I had more in the bank than he had. But now I'm left with nothing see nineteen years together and he left for a younger woman a new doll to play with
To old, dull and unsuccessful in life he called me
See he had forgotten that years ago I was successful
I had given it all up for his ego
You can judge me
Go on I and I alone gave it up and you have the right to judge me.
