Back Down

I thought of a time today
I remember it well
Everyone looked so innocent
But for me it was hell

Alone in the library
My friends on the shelves
Cleo, Caesar and Rowling
Helped me fend for myself

How long will you decide what I'm going through
Like you always do
I won't give in, I won't back down
You'll hear me now

We tell boys they shouldn't feel
Choke your emotions inside
Oh believe me friend I've been there a hundred times before

And maybe tears don't seem so masculine
Maybe I don't care
Through all these years I've carried a weight not mine to bare

Still, I don't think it would be
Something so different from me
For them I'll fight back why'd I ever think to let you win

How long will you decide what I'm going through
Like you always do
I won't give in, I won't back down
You'll hear me now

Oh but it's not over, though you know that it should
They never notice, even though they could
But still I wait here, oh I'm still around
Yet they would never know

How long will you decide what I'm going through
Like you always do
I won't give in, I won't back down
You'll hear me now

How long will you decide what I'm going through
Like you always do
I won't give in, I won't back down
You'll hear me
