Late to work again, fighting through the night with him
Isolating from your friends, seems like a red flag to me

Things were going well, but now you're scared to be yourself
One misstep, he'll give you hell, calling you crazy

His foot is on your neck, his threats are in your head
How much more can you give, till you have nothing left

Oh, sweet soul, you don't have to stay with him
Why are you afraid of him
Oh, sister, all he does is take from you
He's never gonna change for you
My best friend I've seen you yell at giants
Yet this tiny man has taken your voice away
You don't have to stay

I see you having fun, until his phone calls interrupt
You're scared to pick it up
I can see the fear in you

To friends he's so polite, but liquid courage fuels his fight
Alcohol and cloudy skies leads to disaster

But then he makes his plea
He just won't let you be
How much more can you take, till you find the strength to leave

Oh, sweet soul, you don't have to stay with him
Why are you afraid of him
Oh, sister, he's never gonna change for you
All he does is take from you
My best friend I've seen you yell at giants
Yet this tiny man is taking your voice away
You don't have to stay

And I'll be by your side, when you see the giants are falling from the sky
And I'll be by your side, to pack up your things, whenever it is time

Oh, sweet soul, you don't have to stay with him
Oh, you don't have to stay with him
Why are you afraid, afraid of him
Oh, sister, all he does is take from you
He's never gonna change for you
And my best friend I've seen you yel lat giants
Yet this tiny man is taking your voice away
You don't have to stay
You don't have to stay
