I trusted you
I trusted you
Still see the brand of your jeans
Your hands were cold as ice
And it still keeps me up at night
I wish I had the words to say
But I’m still workin’ through the pain
It’s killin’ me day after day
But I won’t take it to my grave
I’m telling you
I’ll tell them all, I’ll tell the truth
Oh, just the thought of you controlling all I do
If I bury anything, I’ll bury you
I wish I had the words to say
But I’m still workin’ through the pain
It’s killin’ me day after day
But I won’t take it to my grave
Did you?
Did you think I’d keep our little secret?
I don’t have any good reason
To not come clean from your demons
I’m damaged, I’m bleedin’
Did you think I would stay quiet
That I’d forgive and not fight it?
But the resentment is hiding
And you can’t scare me to silence
I wish I had the words to say
To say
But I’m still workin’ through the pain
The pain
It’s killin’ me day after day
No
But I won’t take it to my grave
Still see the brand of your jeans
Your hands were cold as ice
And it still keeps me up at night
Unburying the Past: Avery Anna’s “GRAVE”
In “GRAVE,” Avery Anna bravely navigates the aftermath of betrayal and emotional scars. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of lingering pain—”Still see the brand of your jeans / Your hands were cold as ice”—that haunts the narrator long after the relationship has ended. The song’s refrain, “I wish I had the words to say / But I won’t take it to my grave,” is a powerful declaration: rather than suppress her trauma, Anna chooses to confront it, refusing to be silenced by fear or manipulation. The track becomes an anthem for anyone striving to reclaim their own story, highlighting the strength it takes to speak out against those who have caused harm. Ultimately, “GRAVE” is a moving exploration of vulnerability, resilience, and the cathartic power of truth.
