The car in drive The windows up I'm suffocating in the silence of my mind's persistent rush I have always been so strong and independent And always to sidetracked to call The consequence of my strength and independence Is a selfishness that serves to magnify my flaws And it's safe to say that I was the coward And I always knew you would Be the one to show me what strength is when I was the one who should. Hazy eyes and sleepless nights have become my new normal Feeling sorry for myself while you endure more torture You have always been so strong and independent Never one to ask for help, no When it's said and done this strength and independence Is what left us all alone And it's safe to say that I was the coward And I always knew you would Be the one to show me what strength is when I was the one who should And it's safe to say that I was the coward And I always knew you would Be the one to show me what strength is when I was the one who should And it's safe to say that I was the coward And I always knew you would Be the one to show me what strength is when I was the one who should
