Face Like Flint

FLINT

Set my face like flint
Don’t matter what you say
You can’t make or break me
You can’t make me quit
I’m no friend of this world
I’ve been dead for a while
It’s alright by me
I can still give a smile

It’s alright
It’s okay
The sun will rise
It’s alright
Oh, love it’s okay

And I would test your will
Steal all your thrills until you supplicate
And I would show you pain
Send rain to wash these stains of ingratitude
It’s time you say I don’t care what they say
I don’t care

It’s so much easier
Than I had ever let myself believe
My soul is yours
You can stare
You can speak
I don’t care

Set my face like flint

Now I can live more free
Though I may be strange and odd
And sometimes offensive
But I’m just being me
That’s all I can be
That’s all I can be
It’s alright
Oh, love it’s okay
