Lyrics

I am just so angry
I am overcome
I am overcome
By what?s not yet begun.
I?m a warrior of one.
I am so overcome
By what?s not yet begun
By what?s not yet begun.

And I don?t deserve your kindness
Although it?s what I need
And I will not tolerate
Any of your sympathy.

For when you treat me kindly,
You?re forcing me to feel.
Please don?t be gentle?
I?m not ready, yet, to heal?
I?m not ready, yet, to heal?
I?m not ready, yet,
To heal.

For if I were to heal,
I?d have to take responsibility?
For all of my past
Irrationality.
And if I were to heal,
I?d have no other choice
But to claim all those things that I?ve done
As a warrior of one.

And I won?t accept your kindness
Although it?s what I need
And I will not tolerate
Any of your sympathy.
For when you treat me kindly,
You?re forcing me to feel.
Please don?t be gentle?
I?m not ready, yet, to heal?
I?m not ready, yet, to heal?
I?m not ready, yet,
To heal.

I?m a warrior of one. A warrior of one.
A warrior of one.
I am a warrior of one.
