V1: Standing there like Achilles
No one can bring you down
But if you read the stories
You'd know that heroes often fall
V2: Maybe if you don't waver
Nothing can touch your heart
You can be strong and stable
For me to lean upon
PreC: But I'm not the one who needs the rescuing
And I'm trying to understand your reasoning
C: Why you don't want me to see
That you're fragile
Yeah, you're fragile
No, you don't want me to see
That you're fragile
Yeah, you're fragile
Just like me
V3: I can see through the armour
I can see through the stone
Why must you be a martyr
When you don't have to stand alone
V4: Just like a Don Quixote
Chasing what isn't real
Hiding beneath the layers
Of the feelings you won't feel
PreC: But your eyes betray the heart that beats in you
There is no more need to fight, nothing to prove
Chorus
B: You can hold your head up high and try to make it on your own
And continue to endure in your own way
You can hold your world inside, intent on standing all alone
But loneliness and pride don't make you brave
You can let go
You need to let go
You don't have to be strong
All the time
You can let go
You have to let go
You don't need to be strong
All the time
Chorus
