Stronger Than Me Lyrics

So you closed your eyes in the morning 

 You said you want to start smoking again 

 You said you had that dream last night 

 Of the stranger in your room 

 You said you want to start making new friends 

 Well I'd found some peace 

 You want release 

 You must be stronger than me 

 

 I don't know how you can take it

 Invest your heart and then you break it 

 I don't know how you can set it free 

 You must be stronger than me 

 Set it up but it's not perfect 

 Tear it down cause it's not worth it

 If someone else can light your mystery 

 They must be stronger than me 

 

 So I closed my eyes at midnight

 Cinderella must go home 

 But the map was burned 

 And I've taken a wrong turn 

 And I found myself alone 

 I'm tired of this war 

 I don't want to fight no more 

 You must be stronger than me 

 

 So it's too late then 

 You could have told me when 

 Living died and passion lied

 Now you're a refugee 

 Well if it's what you need 

 Run away from the truth you see 

 You must be stronger than
