If you keep crushing my heart
You are going to lose your star
I won’t be disrespected anymore
I know the love that I deserve
And if you can’t give me that
I won’t have any choice
But to be on my way
I refuse to be abused
By you anymore

I won’t spend another night
Crying in the bathroom
Staring at myself in the mirror
A bruised beauty covered
In deep-red scars
My eyes swollen
My nose broken
My lips filled with
Blackened dreams

I can’t do this anymore
I know that if I stay any longer
I won’t live to see the future
As much as I love you
I must turn you loose
To concentrate on loving myself more
I need to take time for me
To be in reclusiveness
Find the beautiful woman
That lies deep inside me
The one brimming with dreams
Ready to shimmer for the world to see
