I wore makeup when we dated
'Cause I thought you'd like me more
If I looked like the other prom queens
I know that you loved before
Tried so hard to be everything that you liked
Just for you to say
You're not the compliment type
And I knew how you took your coffee
And your favorite songs by heart
I read all of your self-help books
So you'd think that I was smart
Stupid, emotional, obsessive little me
I knew from the start this is exactly how you'd leave
How dare you?
And how could you?
Will you only feel bad when they find out?
If you could take it all back, would you?
You found someone morе exciting
The next sеcond, you were gone
And you left me there cryin'
Wonderin' what I did wrong
And you always say I'm never satisfied
But I don't think that's true
'Cause all I ever wanted was to be enough for you
I thought that I was special
You made me feel (enough for you)
Like it was my fault you were the devil
Lost your appeal
Does it keep you in control? (in control)
For you to keep her in a cage?
And you swear you didn't know (didn't know)
You said you thought she was your age
And maybe I'm just not as interesting
As the girls you had before
But God, you couldn't have cared less
About someone who loved you more
I'd say you broke my heart
But you broke much more than that
Now I don't want your sympathy
I just want myself back before
Try not to abuse your power
I know we didn't choose to change
You might not wanna lose your power
But power isn't pain
Don't you think I loved you too much (hu-uh)
To be used and discarded? (hm-hmm)
Don't you think I loved you too muc (oh-oh-oh)
To think I deserve nothing? (oh-ooh, oh-ooh)
But don't tell me you're sorry, boy (oh-oh-oh)
Feel sorry for yourself (oh-ooh, oh-ooh)
'Cause someday I'll be everything to somebody else (hm)
And they'll think that I'm so exciting
And you'll be the one who's crying
Yeah, you always say I'm never satisfied
But I don't think that's true
You say I'm never satisfied
But that's not me, it's you
Try not to abuse your power (enough)
I know we didn't choose to change (enough)
(For you) you might not wanna lose your power
But power isn't pain
No, nothing's enough for you
