Sorry I didn't know
Sorry I couldn't trade places and save you
From a monster disguised in love
He knew you were strong, so he made it a mission
To take that smile from your face
Just breathe and listen
I'll guide you the rest of the way
(The rest of the way)
It wasn't your fault, you know?
He left you abandoned
I could only imagine how long you had felt alone
But know that it's over, you can cry on my shoulder
'Cause any person who can raise their hand
And hit the one they 'love' is a waste of breath
Those days are over and you can breathe again
The scars you bear aren't there to degrade
They're a badge to salute to
You made it out a different person
But in my eyes, you define strength
And a light in the darkness
Taken away and stripped of every sparkle I could see within your eyes
But know that you are loved and not a burden
Take my hand and let go of all the worries tied to what your past held
You are a victor
You are not a victim
Please don't close your eyes
When the beam that shines through your window comes to light your world
You may struggle some days
And you may think there's no way out
Please remember one thing
We love you
Taken away and stripped of every sparkle I could see within your eyes
But know that you are loved and not a burden
Take my hand and let go of all the worries tied to what your past held
You are a victor
You are not a victim
