The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Goes to sleep with no one by her side
Goes by everyday not being hugged
Goes waking, cursing the day ahead
Goes by everyday begging for love
Praying for love to the gods above
Yet believes that it will get better
That she'll have happy-ever-after
X
The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Was as beautiful as her mother
Even so, no one ever bothered
Except for a few creeps and perverts,
Condescending from Athena's girls
And pretty much the whole mortal world
All the beauty that there is was hers
Still no one bothered to hear her cries
X
The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Had only wanted love from others
Especially from her dear Mother
And had often tried all to get it
But she only received little bits
And all her love turned into anger
Soon, she became lonely and bitter
Most angry at her mom, Aphrodite
X
The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Had often wished to the stars above
That she had another for mother
Any woman except Aphrodite
And believed that'd be so much better
Than the frivolous goddess of love
She wished she had been Athena's, too
Maybe that'll give her some value, too
X
The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Gave so much love to those who did not
Breathe, receive, nor return what she gives
There was once her eyes sparkled so bright
But this time, her heart started to rot
To love, she became so defensive
She started to build her castle up,
Cut down bridges and left many gaps
X
The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Was scorched, scorned, and scared of love itself
She became wary, locked in herself
Up in the castle's turret she built
Watching relationships she had die
Stopping tears from falling down her eyes
Kept silent under the weight of guilt
Went on life with her remaining strength
X
The loveless daughter of Aphrodite
Goes to sleep with no one by her side
Goes by everyday not being hugged
Goes dreading, cursing the day ahead
No longer begged anyone for love
No longer prayed to the gods above
Believes no more that it'll get better
Trusts happy ever afters no more
