Lyrics: Seven Mary Three. American Standard. Headstrong.

Headstrong is willing to live like a rat in a hole
Headstrong, unwilling to listen to anyone at all
Keeps her head above the water
Keeps her head upon her shoulders
I know, I know, I know she has heard this all before

She don't break, she don't sink, don't think, don't think a thing of me

Headstrong can fake an awkwardness
Silenced by the price of love
Don't get too close in case, push comes to shove
Be your favorite girl, hear your favorite song
She's heard it all before

I don't mind she knows the words I'm writing
We all need some pain
And remember, what you told me, we all bleed the same

Headstrong is makin' a list so long, of all the people she has
Done and undone again, my name engraved
She doesn't notice the things that I take for granted were my
Own to give, my own to give and take
She don't break, she don't sink don't think

Don't want to give or take my love
Don't break don't sink don't think of me

Headstrong, headstrong, headstrong, headstrong
Headstrong, headstrong, headstrong, headstrong
