I've got a high pain tolerance
Roaring applause a crowd that cheers me on
Holding a glass of confidence
Turning my knuckles white till I see blood
I'd forgive the devil if he said please
Can tell myself I'm fine as I'm suffocating
When you call me strong is that what you mean
I think I'd rather be weak
Lonely with my dignity
I'd rather be weak
Than hold on to what's holding me down
I'd rather be weak
A certain type of calculus
Getting out before the walls close in
When relief is blasphemous
And walking through a door is sin
Always told myself it wasn't me
But I'm learning how to swim from someone who's drowning
Is this what strong means
I think I'd rather be weak
Lonely with my dignity
I'd rather be weak
Than hold on to what's holding me down
I'd rather be weak
This time I'll let the chain break with me
I'd rather be free
Than hold on to what's holding me down
I'd rather be weak
