glutton for punishment is the name of the game
living in that kind of hell, is quite a shame.
never knowing from one day to another
if he'll leave you as a mother.

so you go right back with your head held high
nose in the air touching the sky.
untill his feelings finally die.

then and only then, will you finally realize
a glutton mistress can not compromise.
