"I can't do anything right, can I?"

"He never gives me anything I really want."

"I wanted to be a singer, you know."

"He thinks I'm a toy, something to be owned."

"My whole life has been about what he wanted."

"Singing was all I ever wanted to do."

"He built me a palace, but it's a prison."

"I was nobody before he found me."

"Money can buy anything except what you really need."

"Nobody ever really listens to me."

"I thought love meant being taken care of."

"The more he gives me, the less I have."

"I can't leave, even though I want to."

"He made me what I am, for better or worse."

"Singing was my escape from everything."

"I wanted to be appreciated, not possessed."

"He never saw me as a person, only as his creation."

"I gave up everything for him, and he gave me nothing real."

"Sometimes I wonder who I really am underneath all this."

"Love should make you feel free, not trapped."

"I was happier when I had nothing but dreams."

"He wanted to control my voice, my art, my soul."

"The stage was the only place I felt alive."

"I thought marrying him would make my dreams come true."

"Instead, he turned my dream into his obsession."

"You can't make someone love you by force."

"I learned that money doesn't buy happiness."

"Every gesture he made was really about himself."

"I wanted to sing, not to be a monument."

"He designed my life the way he designed his buildings."
