Too Proud

Poison Girls

I had to have, I had to hold
I had to be so strong and stand alone
I had to know, I had to name
I had to play so hard to win the game
But just like water can turn into wine
I’m not too proud to change my mind

So I gave up taking chances
I gave up pushing rivers
Steered clear of the rapids
I never lost control
I tried to stop the thunder
Didn’t want to hear the thunder
Clapped my hands on my ears
So I wouldn’t have to hear
My own fears…

I had to have, I had to own
I had to be so strong and stand alone
I had to know, I had to name
I had to play so hard to win the game
But just like water can turn into wine
I’m not too proud to change my mind
