Best of Me

[Verse 1] Think I'm steel, tough as nails Never feel, never fail But you're wrong So damn wrong Feel the weight of your hate I still bleed, my heart aches As you take And you take [Pre-Chorus] Words cut through my skin Tears roll down my chin My walls crumble within' But I'll take it all on And get up when I fall Till the last curtain call [Chorus] But you'll never get the best of me no more Said you'll never get the best of me no more Aren't you tired of throwin' stones? Try to kick me when I'm down But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't [Verse 2] Say I'm cold, made of ice Heart of stone born to fight But I cry, I still cry Are you happy to know I'm unhappy alone? Take your shot, I'm wide open [Pre-Chorus] Words cut through my skin Tears roll down my chin My walls crumble within' But I'll take it all on And get up when I fall Till the last curtain call [Chorus] But you'll never get the best of me no more Said you'll never get the best of me no more Aren't you tired of throwing stones? Try to kick me when I'm down? But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't But you'll never get the best of me no more Said you'll never get the best of me no more Aren't you tired of throwing stones? Try to kick me when I'm down But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't [Hook] Heartbroken and beaten Knocked down and mistreated I will rise undefeated I will not let you bring me down Now the pain is deleted And I will never repeat it I will rise undefeated I will not let you bring me down No, I won't let you bring me down [Bridge] Knocked down and mistreated Heartbroken and beaten Still I rise undefeated Because you'll never get [Chorus] But you'll never get the best of me no more Said you'll never get the best of me no more Aren't you tired of throwing stones? Trying to kick me when I'm down But you'll never get the best of me, no, you won't [Hook] Heartbroken and beaten Knocked down and mistreated I will rise undefeated I will not let you bring me down Now the pain is deleted And I will never repeat it I will rise undefeated I will not let you bring me down
