These are close. Neither Breathe nor Brokenpromisedland has "bend", but the use of "break" is similar in context to the way it's used in Unbreakable. The line in No Regrets carries a slightly different connotation, more like being willing to compromise vs drawing a line in the sand and not backing away from it; so I don't know if you would include that one or not.

I Will Drive You Home:
They've come to kick the tires; they'd like to take a spin
See how it takes the turns; see if it breaks or bends

No Regrets
I broke some hearts, been broken-hearted
Run away from fires I've started
I didn't break but tried my best to bend

Breathe:
Not all our dreams are coming true
We can't let it break us

Brokenpromiseland:
So rise my fallen angel
Come on now come on now
Shine, don't let them break you
