Nails Are Tougher Than Me --- Song Lyric

Verse 1: I was brought up to think like a soldier, to guard every emotion in a tight metal cage I learned how to shut down and suck it all in but no one ever taught me how to live with my rage Chorus: I once thought I was tougher than nails and my heart was as hard as heat hardened steel rails but now I've been hammered by life I can see nails are tougher, nails are tougher than me. Verse 2: It's taken so long to accept that I'm human; to feel what I'm feelin', and not act like a clown. Back then I was broken now I'm broken open; when our daughter came to us my heart melted down Bridge: Indifference isn't a virtue, choose coldness and it's you who will lose, I learned this lesson the hard way now it's yours to use or misuse. Repeat Chorus: Link to the recorded song: https://drooble.com/song/1742092
