A temper is a fragile thing
A beast when you're alone
With words of steel and disbelief
Implied a heart of stone
What made me think you'd open up
I wonder if you're strong enough
Reserved the right to fight or flee
I'll have my freedom now
No longer this, I can't resist
My pride decided how
No, I don't mind if things get rough
But I wonder if you're strong enough
To bend with me
Touch the ground
Hard beneath and it won't back down
An open mind, a warning sign
Things I've learned that I learn repeat
Learn repeat
Project rejection
Can't you see how I've protected you
And I expect your blind respect
For all you put me through
To be aware and not be touched
I wonder if I'm strong enough
Bend with me
Touch the ground
Hard beneath and it won't back down
Bend with me
Make a sound
Prove to me that you can be found
You did your time
And I did mine
Things I've learned that I learn repeat
Learn repeat [x4]
