lyrics

If the yucca can stand so tall (no matter what the ache)
I wish I could see them now (to tell em)
Bend don't break
Would it change a thing (about their disbelief)
Or sew the seeds for the same mistake?
If the yucca can stand so tall (no matter what the ache)
I wish I could see them now (to tell em)
Bend don't break
Don't let the high winds take you down

When pain becomes a cold sensation
Neither good or bad
Any feeling, even fleeting
Becomes the goal
When life is but a destination
Along a broken path
Every step feels like a million miles
And walking feels like a broken record

But if the yucca can stand so tall (no matter what the ache)
I wish I could see them now (to tell em)
Bend don't break
Would it change a thing (about their disbelief)
Or sew the seeds for the same mistake?
If the yucca can stand so tall (no matter what the ache)
I wish I could see them now (to tell em)
Bend don't break
Don't let the high winds take you down

When dreams and altered states bring comfort
That sober hours lack
Weigh the options
Tip the scale cautiously
But don't let it fall
Yeah don't let it fall

Cause if the yucca can stand so tall (no matter what the ache)
I wish I could see them now (to tell em)
Bend don't break
Would it change a thing (about their disbelief)
Or sew the seeds for the same mistake?
If the yucca can stand so tall (no matter what the ache)
I wish I could see them now (to tell em)
Bend don't break
Don't let the high winds take you
Don't let the high winds take you down

Stand your ground
