This song is about overcoming obstacles in life, learning how to be strong in the midst of a terrible situation. For the people who tell you that you are nothing, they are jealous of the precious life you have.
[Lindsay Schoolcraft]:
You told me I’ll never do any better
If I left I’d lose it all
You took away the shine in the mirror
So I’d lose the sight of my soul
How was I to know I would grow so sick?
Lose my voice, lose my mind
I’m standing on the edge of the wall you’ve built
So unsure of the other side
I won’t play the victim, not for you
I won’t let you see I’m in pain
Get your out of my system of being used
Suck the poison from my veins
I know what I deserve now
And it’s not all the lies you fed me every night
I know the truth now
And I’m taking back all of my stolеn light
I won’t play the victim, I won’t play your game
[Sarah Jezеbel Deva]:
You held the gaslight above my head
To lead my astray
Took all the good parts out of me
And left me to fade away
You didn’t think I’d show my face again
But here I stand, here I stand
You didn’t want to see me rise again
But I’ve become all that you can’t
I won’t play the victim, not for you
You don’t deserve to know I’m in pain
Get you our of my system of being used
Suck the poison from my veins
I know what I deserve now
And it’s not all the lies you fed me every night
I know the truth now
And it’s set me free because I’m learning how to fight
I won’t play the victim, I won’t play your games
[Lindsay Schoolcraft & Sarah Jezebel Deva]:
I am no longer scared or ashamed
I have grown stronger and you can’t take that away
Now I know this is better left behind
Now I know you are better left behind
