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
