That girl, she looks like me Her empathy runs deep For the broken and bereaved Shes the type to give her all But broken angel always falls
She's the type to be used and abused by the one that she loves Her constant compassion just wasnt enough She gives He takes She thinks its fate It aint her way to make mistakes Her friends say wait Wake up things aint the way he might portray But she stays anyway Not seeing her boundaries being crossed every day Her money being tossed away
But the other woman got jealous She wanted him to tell her its just us She tried to wait but she got fed up Decided to tell on him, show the other ***** whats up
Images that cant be unseen Insides writhe with fury, pain beneath Buried deepseated beliefs broken It set her free See, * the ties that bind us Are woven with obligation and guilt All those years behind us Even the best relationships built With reciprocity But when you stop and see Hes doing nothing for me Thats when you cut ties and flee
But see guilt * is a trickster Bungee cord it snaps her back Now she thanks the heavens For her sharpest weapon Seven women weilded well Cuts through guilt that kept her held And now she is the angel fell Now first, * she always minds herself Call it selfish, i call it healthy No longer soft and lost, her sight is keen Not beaten, not free, but somewhere in between Better than average, shes mean The nuances of trust lost etched like a map across her gaze She is always thoroughly unfazed That girl, she looks like me
