You told me I was beautiful
Then you told me I was a *****
You told me you could change me
That you would leave me begging for more
You told me that you loved me
And left me lying on the floor

I told myself you were wrong
I told myself I was strong
It wasn’t me
It was you all along
But doubt is a heavy burden
You left me very uncertain
Behind closed curtains
I believed you when you said
No one else would want me

If you loved me
How could it hurt so much?
I told you to do it
You’d convinced me my life wasn’t worth enough
I was careless
So you hit me,
I was hopeless
So you broke me,
I won’t forgive you
But I choose to forgive myself
