Intro: F - Am - Dm - Am
F Am
I can't help but close my eyes for life
Dm Am
And dream a different ending
F Am
That when I wake, I won't be so exhausted
Dm Am
And I will stop with my pretending
F Am Dm
That I'm fine, I'm fine if I can fool myself tonight
C Am Dm
And my lie will drown out all of yours
F C Dm
I will not bend until I break, how much can one bruised body take?
Bb
Just not enough to silence me, you're only a memory
F C Dm
I'll scream these words 'til they come true, then I will think no more of you
Bb F
Look back on what I'm going through, this isn't my identity
F - Am
F Am
You will bleed for what your hands have done
Dm Am
You can't outrun your ending
F Am
And I'll get well long before you let yourself
Dm Am
I may forgive you, but you never will
F C Dm
I will not bend until I break, how much can one bruised body take?
Bb
Just not enough to silence me, you're only a memory
F C Dm
I'll scream these words 'til they come true, then I will think no more of you
Bb
Look back on what I'm going through, this isn't my identity
Am Bb
And I told you, I told you, you had no right
Am C
How damaged you must be
B♭ Am Bb
Watch you panic, it's tragic, you'll carry this for life
Am
You have my sympathy
C - F

I will not bend until I break, how much can one bruised body take?
