Icon for Hire – Brittle
Brittle [Verse 1] I'm rough around the edges Mistake me for pretentious I get stuck in my head It's not personal, it's just personal I've been strong for too long Sometimes I forget why I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying [Pre-Chorus] I'm just a statistic Just another tragic misfit Ship that cliche to the clinic Document my disposition Then they put me in a box Slap a label on the top Tape me up and ship me off Now I'm someone else's problem [Chorus] They call me damaged I let them think what they like They call me difficult 'Cause I don't fit in the lines But I didn't get this far without any scars I'm not brittle Well, maybe just a little A little [Post-Chorus] I'm not brittle [Verse 2] If I get defensive Don't say I'm oversensitive Maybe I have a tendency to snap on people telling me "You fit inside this box we built, we know you better than yourself" They're lying They're lying They're lying [Pre-Chorus] I'm just a statistic Just another tragic misfit Ship that cliche to the clinic Document my disposition Then they put me in a box Slap a label on the top Tape me up and ship me off Now I'm someone else's problem [Chorus] They call me damaged I let them think what they like They call me difficult 'Cause I don't fit in the lines But I didn't get this far without any scars I'm not brittle Well, maybe just a little A little [Post-Chorus] I'm not brittle [Bridge] I tell myself Keep breathing, don't lose focus I'm alive, I'm not a diagnosis Keep breathing, don't lose focus Keep breathing, don't lose focus You're alive, you're not a diagnosis Keep breathing, don't lose focus I'm not a diagnosis [Chorus] They call me damaged I let them think what they like They call me difficult 'Cause I don't fit in the lines But I didn't get this far without any scars I'm not brittle Well, maybe just a little A little [Post-Chorus] I'm not brittle [Outro] Keep breathing Don't lose focus |
