Robot

Can I walk any steadier
Than I do right now
If you ask if I'm ready, sure
I was told just how

'Cause you gotta be like the others, don't run for cover
Don't be all soft, be strong like your brother
Why do I bother, be a good son and good daughter

We don't cry for nothin'
We were all build for something
Broken bones still you're running
I know you're breaking down

If you were a robot, I'd change your parts
If you were a movie, I'd change the plot
But you're not a robot, you've got a heart
Though it feels heavy, that's where we'll start

So I'll sit with you until you fall asleep
Because the world is way too loud
Stay close to you if that is what you need
You say the world is way too loud, I'll shut it up

Tough crowd, knocked down, and you feel the dirt
What you gonna do, oh
It feels etched on your skin it hurts
Like a bad tattoo

Then you gotta breathe till it's over, rest till you're sober
You were far out now you're getting closer
Come rain what follows, after tonight comes tomorrow

We don't cry for nothin'
We were all build for something
Broken bones still you're running
I know you're breaking down

So I'll sit with you until you fall asleep
Because the world is way too loud
Stay close to you if that is what you need
You say the world is way too loud, I'll shut it up

If you were a robot, I'd change your parts
If you were a movie, I'd change the plot
But you're not a robot, you've got a heart
And though it feels heavy, that's where we'll start
