I was not born afraid
You made me that way
With what you've said and what you've done
It never seems to fade

What you want from me I can't give
But I think you knew
This is what you get
Why a choice when you hate my choice
You call this a gift
There's no sense in anything at all

I'll break it down, I'll break it all down
I'll take it on, I'll take it on for you
I'll wear it well, just show me how
I just want to make you happy

Let it be, this mortal stain
You can't explain what you've done
But I'm confused
Did you mean those things?
Should I fly, fly away

These are days when I lose myself
When I can't get through
When I look to you
You carry on like there's nothing wrong
Like I should be strong
But I'm barely hanging on
