lyrics

u came to me cuz
it felt safe,
assuring me that he
never placed his hands
to your face
but just because the
bruises are mental or
underneath clothes
and skin, it doesn't
extinguish
the sin
or the heartache /
your imperfection does
not make it okay,
because even if you
fail to see your value,
he should still recognize
your richness enough
to never endanger you /
yeah, men can be shit
and play games but questionable
life choices never afford
us the right to hit you /
your presence
and differences are not
justification for abuse /
i can't believe you would even
try to excuse his short fuse,
like you deserved this...
like he deserves you /
believe, i am free of a gavel
and robe
but i know what i know
and there's know way
that this should be the path
that you chose / if i was your
father, i woulda done everything
within my power to make
sure you were exposed
to the type of care bestowed
upon something
priceless and rare / but i may
never be a dad, so maybe
my conjecture's not fair / cuz
i know that i've done my fair
share of inciting and influencing
women to probably pour
out their tears or tear out
their hearts / but in 30 years
i've never beaten a woman
and even if i only had 30 days
or 30 minutes or seconds left
and the devil offered me
immortality...
i still wouldn't start /
i know you're smart
and maybe it's not my
place to tell you what
to do...or not to
stay / but if i think there's
even a chance you might
go back to him,
there's something i
must say...

no, you are not a "battered
bitch" as you put it
but please,

find
another
way /
