I can't help but close my eyes for life
And dream a different ending
That when I wake, I won't be so exhausted
And I will stop with my pretending
That I'm fine, I'm fine if I can fool myself tonight
And my lie will drown out all of yours

I will not bend until I break, 
How much can one bruised body take?
Just not enough to silence me, you're only a memory
I'll scream these words 'til they come true 
Then I will think no more of You
Look back on what I'm going through, this isn't my identity

You will bleed for what your hands have done
You can't outrun your ending
And I'll get well long before you let yourself
I may forgive you, but you never will
I will not bend until I break, 
How much can one bruised body take?

Just not enough to silence me, you're only a memory
I'll scream these words 'til they come true, 
Then I will think no more of You
Look back on what I'm going through, this isn't my identity
And I told you, I told you, you had no right
How damaged you must be

Watch you panic, it's tragic, you'll carry this for life
You have my sympathy I will not bend until I break, 
How much can one bruised body take?
Just not enough to silence me, you're only a memory
I'll scream these words 'til they come true, 
Then I will think no more of You

Look back on what I'm going through, this isn't my identity
You're only a memory this isn't my identity
You're only a memory

This isn't my identity (I will not bend)
You're only a memory (I will not break)
This isn't my identity (I will not bend)
You're only a memory (I will not break)
This isn't my identity (I will not bend)
You're only a memory (I will not break)
This isn't my identity (I will not bend)
You're only a memory (I will not break)
This isn't my identity (I will not bend)
You're only a memory (I will not break)

This isn't my identity
