How Strong
He is classy thinks that all his scars are so nasty
Guess he's gotta love em cause they cover his ass he's
Clinically scared and when he stares he's not there He's
Gotta Lotta people who seem to really do care
He's got his face and his hair
His life and the air that he's breathing
Never seem to ever stop grieving
For The loss that he's feeling
His skin was peeling
There was fire in his ears and all he hears is squealing
It was him
And now his patience is thin
It's the middle of the night and now he's pacing again
He can't sleep
His knees are weak
He leaned in close when he said to me
I'm not how I'm supposed to be
And everybody close to me
Can tell that somethin deep inside
Is broken I've tried
To confide
But I'd rather hide
How strong am I supposed to be
When everybody close to me
Can only tell me wait and see
Well I can't breathe
I feel like my mind is lost at see
So how strong am I supposed to be
La la la ooo ooo
La la la ooo ooo
Danny just turned 45
Worked everyday of his life
Never found a wife
Just the end of a pint yeah he's drunk every night
Ten years later he's still alone
Got a big house but its not a home
He had just gotten sacked
Met ne at the bar and broken he said
I'm not where I'm supposed to be
Should be teaching history
Somewhere in New York City
But here I sit
I'm drunk as shit with my dreams in the ditch
So how strong am I supposed to be
When there's nobody close to me
I worked away my only friends and there's no end
I feel like I only ever pretend
How strong am I supposed to be
La la la ooo ooo
La la la ooo ooo
Hi there meet Ted
Teddy gets to drinking and he wishes he was dead
He would prolly buy a nine and put a bullet in his head
But He'd never leave his lovely wife and kids up in their beds
So he stifles all these feelings till he's red
And never tells his family bout the feelings in his head
I
I feel sorry for you, Ted
When you woke up one mornin wishing you left
Good bye
Good bye
I'm leaving
In the morning
Good bye
Good bye
I'm leaving
In the morning
Guess he's gotta love em cause they cover his ass he's
Clinically scared and when he stares he's not there He's
Gotta Lotta people who seem to really do care
He's got his face and his hair
His life and the air that he's breathing
Never seem to ever stop grieving
For The loss that he's feeling
His skin was peeling
There was fire in his ears and all he hears is squealing
It was him
And now his patience is thin
It's the middle of the night and now he's pacing again
He can't sleep
His knees are weak
