Una Walkenhorst - The Woman Who Owned Herself Lyrics

You seemed like someone
Who might be genuine
Thought I'd finally found a friend
But I was fooled again
So, you told me all these lies
All these secret alibis
And all these women you despise
'Cause they left you
But I was just another weight
For you to dominate
And when I wouldn't take the bait
You became everything I hate
But I'm more
I'm more than some failure's fantasy
All malleable and flimsy
And dying for your seed
And you don't wanna f*ck with me
You don't wanna f*ck with me
You don't wanna f*ck with me
So, you can just put me on your shelf
And tell them that I was someone else
Someone not so confident in themself
And we'll both know I ruined you
'Cause I'm the woman who owned herself
That night you came back late
In an angry, drunken state
And when I truly felt afraid
I still forgave you
So you can tell them what you want
I'm some ungrateful little cunt
I'd say I'm sorry to be blunt
But I'm just not
So while you're on probation
I'll be driving cross this nation
Singing songs about you
Songs about you
But your name
Your name, it won't matter anymore
You're just a shadow cast across
Your peeling vinyl floor
And I don't wanna stay no more
I don't wanna stay no more
I don't wanna stay no more
So, you can just put me on your shelf
And tell them that I was someone else
Someone not so confident in themself
And we'll both know I ruined you
'Cause I'm the woman who owned herself
You don't own me
I don't owe you anything
And just because you take me in
Don't mean you get to pull the strings
So you can tell them that I left you
In a fit of jealousy
And conveniently leave out
Just what you did to me
So, just put me on your shelf
And tell them that I was someone else
Someone not so confident in themself
And we'll both know I ruined you
