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]
