The doors of Arkham Asylum,

Open for me,

Wishing me the best,

As a promising psychiatrist.

They want me to start slow,

I seek for a challenge.

Little did I know,

When I finally did meet him,

My life would change forever.

As my eyes fell upon him,

Joker,

My sessions became me falling for him.

I only fell deeper into him,

He had quite a ride,

Little did I know,

He would take me along with him.

To Ace Chemicals we went,

It was his special place,

And wants me to try it.

Down I fall,

Free falling,

SPLASH!

I wake up as a new woman,

Staring into the eyes of not my patient,

But my Joker,

My Mistah J,

My Puddin'!

"Oh Puddin', oh Puddin'!"

And I become the harlequin.

Mission after mission,

I followed him,

I've gotten away with so much,

I went after the bat,

And I made friends.

"Your love for him comes at a price," they warned,

"It leaves you scars."

The bruises, cuts, scratches, scrapes, black eyes, blood trickling down my skin?

No, I have screwed up with missions from time to time.

Others say different,

Eddie, Johnny, Red,

They're concerned,

I've crashed at their places when things get rough.

Red especially gets worried,

She wants to kill Mistah J,

To be fair, he's created a lot of enemies before,

Eddie and Johnny ain't too far off.

Many would want to put a bullet between his eyes,

I won't let them hurt him,

Even if I leave with black and blue marks.

I've done favors for him,

But Mistah J will always take the credit.

Once more getting beaten,

Eddie, Johnny, and Red especially are still worried,

They were right in the end.

I screwed up again and things got bad,

Mistah J kicked me out,

Through a window,

And I'm free falling,

Like the first time he pushed me into the chemicals,

That was when my world shattered.

I stayed with Red,

Maybe Puddin' will take me back again?

I tried,

And he threw me out,

My world has grown cold,

The tears, wounds, it hurt.

My sobs shake my entire self,

It was really over,

Mistah J didn't want me anymore.

Too much I mourn,

My friends tell me,

They found me a nice place,

But they couldn't stick around long,

They had a bat to catch,

They wished me luck as I did to them.

I could only mourn more,

For my lost love,

Binge through my sorrows,

And reflect a lot on myself.

"You're worth more, Harls," Red would tell me.

I knew what she meant,

I had to pick myself up,

Make new friends,

And find new love.

First came new love,

A hyena I named Bruce,

After that hunky Wayne guy,

I fed him and loved him well.

Next came new friends,

It taught me more about myself than before,

Days of roller derby does a lot.

One day,

I had to reveal my relationship status,

It has to be said,

"Puddin' and I broke up."

They laugh,

They don't believe me,

They think I'm nothing without Joker.

Eventually, I snapped,

It takes a truck crash,

Into Ace Chemicals,

His special place,

And I destroyed it.

Now they believe me,

Accepted the truth.

I was finally free from him,

But it came at a price,

I wronged so many people before,

Now they're all after me.

My friends are pleased that I'm free,

But worry over my current situation,

I tell them I'll handle it.

It all became a chase,

A fear of will I be able to fend off alone?

There are believers,

And there are doubters,

But I don't give up.

Finding myself,

My new identity,

Myself without Mistah J,

It was a challenge,

A race against time,

But I don't quit.

I fight for my full freedom,

And it was granted,

I am FINALLY free of that stupid clown,

I couldn't believe I ever loved him,

And I thank my newfound group.

Now, I'm on a league of my own,

No clown,

No Mistah J.

I once proudly wore Property of The Joker,

Now,

I proudly wear Property of No One.

In bold,

I speak,

Live fast, die clown!

I'm certain my friends are proud of me,

Red especially,

She hated that clown with a passion.

No one could fight my battles,

Except for me, myself, and I,

And that's what I came here to do,

Because I'm Harley fucking Quinn!
