[Verse 1]
You came home with that look
Bottle in your hand
I saw the storm in your jaw
Before you touched my skin
You said I talk too much
Said I push too far
But I was only asking
Why you leave these scars
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands off me
I’m not your punchline
Hands off me
I’ve been patient all night
[Chorus]
Don’t raise your hand
Don’t call it love
Don’t make me bleed
Then pray up above
I said don’t touch me
Don’t touch me now
I’m still a woman
I’m still here somehow
[Verse 2]
Bruises bloom like ink
On my shoulder blade
I wore long sleeves in July
Just to hide the shame
Your apology came
Wrapped in pretty words
But I know what your anger does
I know what I deserve
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands off me
I’m not your silence
Hands off me
I am not compliant
[Chorus]
Don’t raise your hand
Don’t call it love
Don’t make me bleed
Then pray up above
I said don’t touch me
Don’t touch me now
I’m still a woman
I’m still here somehow
[Bridge]
I packed my keys by the door
I got my name back in my chest
If you come near me tonight
You’ll meet the life I kept
No more crying in the sink
No more lies in the dark
I can shake, I can shake
But you won’t break my heart
[Final Chorus]
Don’t raise your hand
Don’t call it love
Don’t make me bleed
Then pray up above
I said don’t touch me
Don’t touch me now
I’m still a woman
I’m still here somehow
Don’t raise your hand
Don’t call it love
I walk out hurt
But I walk out alive
