Lyrics:

Your name came up in therapy
The doctor said you gave me PTSD
So I’ll process the trauma and sorrow and grief
I’m taking back what you took from me

Feel the hurt
Pillar of salt

I’m not your pillar of salt
You can rob me blind, but I paid my debt
Point the finger but it ain’t my fault
You can drown me out in my blood and my sweat
I’m not your pillar of salt
Try to drag me down when it’s your regret
Point the finger but it ain’t my fault
I can’t look back but I’ll never forget

Pillar of salt
I knew you could ruin my life if I let you in
Ain’t my fault
Just another dead weight, just another dead end
Pillar of salt
Yeah, I’ve been doin’ my time, trying to make amends
Ain’t my fault
Just another dead body, just another dead friend

When someone hurts you deeply,
It’s natural to feel the sting of anger rising within you

I’m not your pillar of…

I may seem cursed
By the way you drag my spirit through the dirt (liar)
I may be hurt
But you’re the one that has to live with the guilt
And that’s so much worse

But every time we face such pain
We are given the choice to perpetuate the hurt or to break the cycle

The most profound act of strength isn’t revenge
It’s choosing your own healing
And when you do, you step into a kind of freedom
That no one can take away
