Lyrics

I've always stumbled into love last and sex first
I've never been taught they go together
For I take actions to mean much more than words
And no man's waited to touch me till his heart was cursed
As I grow older I grow further from those around me
And in my solitude, it can get lonely
So I tell myself that I don't need nobody
But deep down I know that I'm dying for someone to make me feel seen
People call me strong
As if I ever had a choice
But I'm not proud of my strength if it's shown in the hearts I've destroyed
I don't wanna be strong
If all it means is just surviving the abuse
I just wanna let somebody in past the walls built by what I've been through
My body's been touched by hands I did not condone
I've been drooled at and defiled by eyes unknown
And even once my heart was broken and thrown
I don't know how to unlearn that surviving is being alone
People call me strong
As if I ever had a choice
But I'm not proud of my strength if it's shown in the hearts I've destroyed
I don't wanna be strong
If all it means is just surviving the abuse
I just wanna let somebody in past the walls built by what I've been through
Oh, whoa
Ooo, Whoa
People call me strong
As if I ever had a choice
But I'm not proud of my strength if it's shown in the hearts I've destroyed
I don't wanna be strong
If all it means is just surviving the abuse
I just wanna let somebody in past the walls built by what I've been through
I want to be open
But I do not have the key
It was taken from me
