Pet Shop Boys

You may think I'm strong
And I can do no wrong
But I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you
I may be hard to take
But you can call me fake
'cause I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you
I know the assumption
Is that I'm tough
With all my anger
That's fair enough
Even with friends
I have to compete
And try being me
When you walk down the street
It's not easy
By the by
Just surviving
In the public
Eye
You may think I'm strong
And I can do no wrong
But I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you
I may be hard to take
But you can call me fake
'cause I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you
You know I can't ever
Bear to seem weak
Or have any doubts
That's just my technique
I put in the hours
At least I don't shirk
A little bravado
Does much of the work
I am no one's
Stepping stone
