I will not be broken,
Even though I'm the one who bleeds,
You cannot break me down.

I wanted to be just like you
I can't make it,
Not being how I want to be.

I tried so hard to be like you,
To pretend that nothing's wrong,
But I can't do anymore.
No more lies,
I don't want secrets kept from the light,
I will not break down.

Stifle the wounds,
That were left open from your heavy touch,
Sew my self shut inside.

I wanted to make you proud,
But all I got was disappointment,
No more hiding tonight.

I tried so hard to be like you,
To pretend that nothing's wrong,
But I can't do anymore.
No more lies,
I don't want secrets kept from the light,
I will not break down.

My body was bleeding,
Slumped sadly against the wall,
Gasping for the precious air,
Thoughts running through my shattered mind,
I will not be broken!

I wanted to make you proud,
But all I got was disappointment,
No more hiding tonight.

I tried so hard to be like you,
To pretend that nothing's wrong,
But I can't do anymore.
No more lies,
I don't want secrets kept from the light,
I will not break down.
