They say you get what you can handle
That life knows what you're strong enough to bear
But tell me who decides that measure
Who says how much a heart can tear
I've been walking through the storms now
From one battle to the next
And sometimes
I just wonder, when will life give me some rest
They always say, you're so strong
People look at me and say, you're stronger than you know
Thank you but
I'm only strong because
I have to be
Not because
I chose this way
That life knows what you're strong enough to bear
But tell me who decides that measure
Who says how much a heart can tear
I've been walking through the storms now
From one battle to the next
And sometimes
I just wonder, when will life give me some rest
They always say, you're so strong
People look at me and say, you're stronger than you know
Thank you but
I'm only strong because
I have to be
Not because
I chose this way
