Lyrics
Days like this, I want to drive away Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade You chewed me up and spit me out Like I was poison in your mouth You took my light, you drained me down But that was then and this is now Now look at me This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no Throw your sticks and your stones Throw your bombs and your blows But you're not gonna break my soul This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no I just wanna throw my phone away Find out who is really there for me You ripped me off, your love was cheap Was always tearin' at the seams I fell deep, you let me drown But that was then and this is now Now look at me This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no Throw your sticks and your stones Throw your bombs and your blows But you're not gonna break my soul This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no Now look at me, I'm sparkling A firework, a dancing flame You won't ever put me out again I'm glowing, oh, whoa So you can keep the diamond ring It don't mean nothing anyway In fact, you can keep everything Yeah, yeah, except for me This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no (away from me) Throw your sticks and your stones Throw your bombs and your blows But you're not gonna break my soul This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no This is the part of me (no) Away from me (no) This is the part of me No Throw your sticks and your stones Throw your bombs and your blows But you're not gonna break my soul This is the part of me That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
