about

This song was written for women in abusive relationships and survivors of all kinds of assault.

lyrics

Honey don't beat yourself up
With regret
We both know he's already done that
Honey don't you dare to think that you were wrong
I promise you it was all him, all along

And I know you feel alone
And I know you feel bad
And I know his heart is home
But home’s not supposed to be sad

Honey don’t cry too hard
The river well it’s melting and I heard
It might fall apart
The ice is getting much too thin today
and I can’t stand to see your heart decay

And I know you feel alone
And I know you feel bad
And I know his heart is home
But home’s not supposed to be sad

It’s the drink in your hands that scares me
Excuses his actions
but condemns your reaction
It’s not okay
cuz you’re not okay

And I know you feel alone
And I know you feel bad
And I know his heart is home
But home’s not supposed to be sad
