She got through life
By the dirty hands that passed her
From one pathetic loser to the next.
"Run away with me"
An abusive husband would ask her.
"I don't want anything to do with her"
Said the father of her six-month-old baby girl.
"You are a worthless piece of crap"
The boyfriend will say...
Everyday of their ten-year relationship.
"Just give me my drugs"
Said the inevitable best of the bunch.
All but the last her anemy.
Only her kids as her allies.
Nowhere to go but the bottom of a bottle.
Her whole life ahead of her...
And she chose men over anything else.

But her daughter will choose better.
I will choose better.
I will choose...
