Story Behind The Song

I was heart broken when I was seventeen. Although it was five years ago it stills feels like it was yesterday. I still do not know whether I was cheated on. But in the song the female character accepts that the cheating occurs and asks the guilty male why..

Song Description

The song is a heartfelt topic but sung in a relaxed reggae influenced way. Using D and Em chords practically throughout the song keeps the instrumentation simple, allowing the listener to really pick up on the words. The song is a journey about rebuilding your life, accepting that you are 'better off without' at the end of the middle section before a fading hum to finish to the song. Leaving the listener with a positive message that the female character may be heart broken, but not broken entirely and is moving on with her life.
