He called her a princess,
and said the she deserves a crown.
He said that she needs to be royalty.
He said it's her destiny.

Years later she has his baby,
he's never home after work anymore,
and this is what she thinks.

I'm calling myself worthless,
and that I need to leave this town.
I need what I never got and that is loyalty.
She said that is what she needs.

You left your perfect future,
why in the world did you do this to her?
She did nothing to you,
yet all you did was use her...

You spoke broken promises,
you never stuck to what you meant.
All she known about you
was how you always left broken promises...
