“U Were in My Dream” sees Banshee exposing how trauma isn’t as easily healed as some people may believe, coming to terms with her own experiences and she also screams at her abuser for what they did to her.
I hate you for every single thing you ever did
I promised to stop writing songs about
Wanting to die
But you were in my dream last night
It's ok not to be alright
And I'm not alright
I may never be alright
But that's ok
Whoever said that time heals all wounds
Clearly never met you
Clearly never met you
I tried to forget all the times
I was locked up in my room
With you screaming on Facetime
Cause' I said "Hi" to another guy
Maybe I got high
Could you blame me at the time
I was in love and afraid for my life
You made me afraid for my life
I hate you for every single thing you ever did
And for making me think that I deserved
Any of it
The day I came back to my room destroyed
You locked me in the bathroom
Said "Your body is mine"
I was just tryna find a way out
I was just tryna find a way out
Love doesn't mean getting hit
Nobody deserves the shit
That you did to me
(Die!)
I hate you (Die!) for every single thing you ever did (Die, Die, Die!)
And for making me think that I deserved
Any of it
