[Verse 1]
Why don't you tell me what do you need?
There is a blank page for you
Give me the bones of what you believe
Maybe they'll save you from me
[Verse 2]
Will I be the strong hand keeping you safe
Or will I break you in half?
And you will never be under my thumb
But you are not your own man
[Pre-Chorus]
See the way we all run
When we know it all off by heart
Played dead, wait it all out
Will we win or lose it, this time?
[Chorus]
When the pressure's building for a great white hope
Do you give up the things that you love?
And the pressure's building 'til it takes you whole
Can you go back on your own word?
[Verse 3]
All of your brothers, they never died
For what you k**, for slowly
How it will grind you into the ground
If you should try to hold me
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus] (x2)
