Bend and Not Break (Re-Record) Dashboard Confessional

I catalog these steps now, decisive and intentioned
Precise and patterned specifically to yours
I'm talented at breathing, especially exhaling
So that my chest will rise and fall with yours

I'm careful not to wake you, fearing conversation
It's better just to hold you and keep you pacified
I'm talented with reason, I cover all the angles
I can fail before I ever try

Try to understand, there's an old mistake that fools will make
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away

So won't you hold me now?
I will not bend, I will not break
Won't you hold me now?
I will not bend, I will not break

I am fairly agile, I can bend and not break
Or I can break and take it with a smile
And I am so resilient, I recover quickly
I'll convince you soon that I'm fine

Try to understand, there's an old mistake that fools will make
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
