You Don’t Get The Rest

Betrayed trust, setting boundaries, and taking your life back.

You were there when someone needed you. Then the things you shared in confidence became something they could use against you. This song is about choosing how much more of your life that person gets to take.

It’s about feeling the anger without becoming cruel, learning to trust the good people again, and getting on with your day. Being kind was never the mistake.
