Not Your Fault

It's not your fault he hurt you that he made you feel so small A man should be a woman's strength And help her stand up tall It's not your fault he scared you and left bruises on your skin or told you not to speak that way while standing up to him It's not your fault he didn't know the way you should be treated Or made you feel ashamed So that you would keep it secret It's not your fault when he said he'd Change you would believe it Because you're kind at heart the bad sometimes you couldn't see it It's not your fault you loved him Or even that you cared Or that you might feel lonely to think of him not there It's not your fault that he used you Only for his gain Or that he abused you And caused you loads of pain It's not your fault he pushed you said things to make you cry It's not your fault that he refused When you tried to say goodbye It's not your fault that to feel safe you had to lie Just remember that it's not a fault to be too sweet inside
