Even after all your cheating and lying
What YOUR selling I'm not buying
I was the only one who's trying
Now I'm done ugly cry--ing
OR
Even after all your cheatin' & lyin'
I was still the one who was still trying
But whatcha sellin' now I ain't buyin'
Cuz I'm finally done with (this) ugly cryin-in'
This story I'll tell it, daring not to cry
Tellin' it for the first time since the good-bye
Will it ever be easy, remembering the lies?
That tore me to pieces by the by...and bye.
I found a proper chorus, still searching verses
My simple, sad words won't dull the hurtin'
Telling the story about us conjures curses
My heart is crushed, pounding, & burstin'
I'm so proud of myself...I'm no longer ugly cryin'!
(and she takes a deep bow)
