I'm rough around the edges
Mistake me for pretentious
I get stuck in my head
It's not personal it's just personal
I've been strong for too long
Sometimes I forget why I'm trying
I'm trying I'm trying
I'm just a statistic
Just another tragic misfit
Ship that cliché to the clinic
Document my disposition
Then they put me in a box
Slap a label on the top
Tape me up and ship me off
Now I'm someone else's problem
They call me damaged
I let them think what they like
They call me difficult
'Cause I don't fit in the lines
But I didn't get this far without any scars
I'm not brittle
Well maybe just a little
A little
I'm not brittle
If I get defensive
Don't say I'm oversensitive
Maybe I have a tendency to snap on people telling me
You fit inside this box we built
We know you better than yourself
They're lying they're lying they're lying
I'm just a statistic
Just another tragic misfit
Ship that cliché to the clinic
Document my disposition
Then they put me in a box
Slap a label on the top
Tape me up and ship me off
Now I'm someone else's problem
They call me damaged
I let them think what they like
They call me difficult
'Cause I don't fit in the lines
But I didn't get this far without any scars
I'm not brittle
Well maybe just a little
A little
I'm not brittle
I tell myself
Keep breathing don't lose focus
I'm alive I'm not a diagnosis
Keep breathing don't lose focus
Keep breathing don't lose focus
You're alive you're not a diagnosis
Keep breathing don't lose focus
I'm not a diagnosis
They call me damaged
I let them think what they like
They call me difficult
'Cause I don't fit in the lines
But I didn't get this far without any scars
I'm not brittle
Well maybe just a little
A little
They call me damaged
But they can think what they like
They call me difficult
'Cause I don't fit in the lines
But I didn't get this far without any scars
I'm not brittle
Well maybe just a little
A little
I'm not brittle
I'm not brittle
Keep breathing
Don't lose focus
