I Will Not Be Broken

There have been a lot of rough and dramatic patches over the last year of my life. In fact, I've come to be known as a drama magnet by my friends. Some days it gets to be too much and I just sit in the dark and cry. Some days I forget to cry and just sit there numb. But when it comes right down to it, I will not be broken. If you too are having a tough go of it and need the same reminder, Bonnie Raitt has it for you on her new CD released Tuesday.*

That was then and this is now
Found my way back here somehow.
Knew youÂ’d have to let me go
I told you once, I told you so

take me down, you can hold me but you can't hold what's within
roll me 'round, push me to the limit
maybe I may bend
but I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be someone other than who I am
I will fight to make my stand

‘cause what is living if I can’t live free
what is freedom if I canÂ’t be me

take me down, you can hold me but you can't hold what's within
roll me 'round push, me to the limit
maybe I may bend
but I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken

I wonÂ’t let you near it
I will let my spirit fly
Fly
High

Oh take me down
take me down, you can hold me but you can't hold what's within
roll me 'round, push me to the limit
maybe I may bend
but we both know where IÂ’m not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be broken

*Hear it on CMT's listening party (not firefox friendly)

1 I've always been a fan of Sinatra's That's Life. However, many Johnny Cash songs apply also.

2 Hang in there Sweetie. The last year was about as bad as it gets for me. Things are finally looking up now. Remember, life may treat you like shit but it is you that decides how you feel. I am sure things will get better for you too. In the mean time, just stick it out and remember that you are a good person and donot deserve all the bullshit thrown at you but that bullshit is making you a stronger person. Good luck. A smile and a fatherly hug to you. Have a nice day.
