WON’T BREAK

“Aarhus… kan I høre mig?

Inden vi starter…

den her sang er til jer, der har givet alt, der har kæmpet jer igennem mørket, og som stadig står her i dag.

Lad os mærke det sammen.”

(Guitar starts – low, building)

(Verse 1)

They lured you in and made you feel like you belonged, until you had given them your all.

Wasted energy, effort, and time — forgotten about yourself, your feelings, and your pride.

They brought the tears that you can no longer hide.

They abused my kindness and used me as a tool,

and when they were done, they laughed and called me a fool.

For years I didn’t learn that they would never give anything in return.

(Chorus)

I promised myself that I wouldn’t break.

I had to fight and keep moving, work on myself and keep improving.

I swore that no one would dare call me weak again.

I forced myself to keep pushing forward until the end.

(Verse 2)

They make you feel empty, they make you feel small,

they make you feel like you don’t matter at all.

You have given everything, time and time again

--

bullied and beaten for years without end.

The teachers watched and didn’t care; they had no empathy to share.

Sitting in the back all by myself, unable to concentrate and with no help.

Day after day they broke me more; I felt the hurt inside my core.

They pushed me into a hole of despair, and I could see that they didn’t care.

I crawled my own way back up, and now I will always strive to be on top.

(Outro)

I promised myself that I wouldn’t break.

I had to fight and keep moving, work on myself to keep improving.

I swore that no one would call me weak again.

I forced myself to keep pushing forward until the end.
