Lyrics
Don’t bend
I was bendable
And pliable
Doing just what they’d say
Twist me anyway they want I would feel it’s OK
Never good at being strong and demanding my way
Forget it with that laying down it’s over today
I tell myself don’t compromise
Be who you are and don’t apologize, and
Don’t bend
When someone tries to push you
Don’t bend
Cause they’ll push till you break
Don’t bend
And take only what’s given
Saying yes is your biggest mistake
Don’t bend
Our favorite sons
Are greedy ones
who fight for themselves
I was fighting indolence then fought for somebody else
I had said already fallen but there’s more I can tell
I’m not buying what you’re selling I can get it myself
Don’t bend
When someone tries to push you
Don’t bend
cause they’ll push till you break
Don’t bend
To some outside distractions
Don’t bend
I’m still breathing
But I’m seething
Languid’s all that’s observed
Inside my head I’m plotting to get what I deserve
The weakness that I once displayed now has been purged
The wolves are out to get you cause this world is absurd
Don’t bend
When someone tries to push you
Don’t bend
Cause they’ll push till you break
Don’t bend
And take only what’s given
Saying yes is your biggest mistake
Don’t bend
Don’t bend
When someone tries to push you
Don’t bend
Cause they’ll push till you break
Don’t bend
To some outside distractions
Don’t bend
