Beating Me Up

[Verse 1]

We threw words like they were sharp knives

Felt like we tripped over a landmine

You said we lost love, you made your mind up

And I just got quiet, my body went numb

And I pretend that I can handle it

And if I hold my head up, I won't drown

I can't let go, you're like the chemical

You're racin' through me, my heart just pounds, pounds, pounds

[Chorus]

It's getting louder and louder

Every time I think about you, about you

I'll be better off without you, without you

I wish my heart would stop, wish my heart would stop

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Beating me up

[Verse 2]

You've moved on, I know I should too

My cuts are all gone, my pain feels brand new

Who turned the lights down? Who took my flashlight?

Why does my heart sound like it might burst tonight?

[Chorus]

It's getting louder and louder

Every time I think about you, about you

I'll be better off without you, without you

I wish my heart would stop, wish my heart would stop

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

I wish my heart would stop (Whoa, oh, whoa)

I wish my heart would stop

[Bridge]

I won't let you get the best of me

How'd my heart become my enemy?

I won't let you get the best of me

How'd my heart become my enemy?

(Beating me up, beating me up)

(Beating me up, beating me up)

[Chorus]

It's getting louder (Louder, louder)

Every time I think about you (About you, about you)

And I'll be better off without you (Without you, without you)

I wish my heart would stop

I wish my heart would stop

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

(I know) Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Whoa, whoa

Wish my heart would (Whoa, oh, whoa)

Wish my heart would stop

Beating me up

Beating me up
