I can't help but close my eyes for life
And dream a different ending
When I wake I won't be so exhausted
And I'll 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

Chorus:
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 'till 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

Chorus:
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 'till they come true
Then I will think no more of you
Look back on what I'm going through
This isn't my identity

Bridge:
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

Chorus:
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 'till 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
