[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
You used to say that Id never be
~#**************#~
Nothin without you, and Id believe
~#**************#~
Im shot in the lungs, I gasp, I cant breathe
~#**************#~
Just lay here with me, baby, hold me please
~#**************#~
And Id beg and Id plead, drop to knees
~#**************#~
And Id cry and Id scream, “Baby, please dont leave!”
~#**************#~
Snatch the keys from your hand, I would squeeze
~#**************#~
And youd laugh, and youd tease
~#**************#~
Youre just fucking with me, and you must hate me
~#**************#~
Why do you date me, if you say I make you sad?
~#**************#~
And youve had enough of me
~#**************#~
I smother you, Im bout to jump off the edge
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But you wont break me
~#**************#~
Youll just make me stronger than I was
~#**************#~
Before I met you, I bet you Ill be just fine without you
~#**************#~
And if I stumble, I wont crumble
~#**************#~
Ill get back up and uhh
~#**************#~
But Ima still be humble when I scream “Fuck you!”
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im stronger than I was
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
A beautiful face is all that you have
~#**************#~
‘Cause on the inside youre ugly and mad
~#**************#~
But youre all that I love, I grasp, you cant leave
~#**************#~
Please stay here with me, baby, hold me please
~#**************#~
And Id beg and Id plead, drop to knees
~#**************#~
And Id cry and Id scream, “Baby, please dont leave!”
~#**************#~
But you left and you took everything I had left
~#**************#~
And left nothin, nothin for me
~#**************#~
So, please dont wake me from this dream, baby
~#**************#~
Were still together in my head
~#**************#~
And youre still in love with me
~#**************#~
‘Til I woke up to discover that that dream was dead
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But you wont break me
~#**************#~
Youll just make me stronger than I was
~#**************#~
Before I met you, I bet you Ill be just fine without you
~#**************#~
And if I stumble, I wont crumble
~#**************#~
Ill get back up and uhh
~#**************#~
But Ima still be humble when I scream “Fuck you!”
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im stronger than I was
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
You walked out, I almost died
~#**************#~
It was almost a homicide
~#**************#~
That you caused, ‘cause I was so traumatized
~#**************#~
Felt like I was in for a long bus ride
~#**************#~
Id rather die than you not by my side
~#**************#~
Cant count how many times I vomited, cried
~#**************#~
Go to my room, turn the radio on and hide
~#**************#~
Thought we were Bonnie and Clyde
~#**************#~
Nah, on the inside you were Jekyll and Hyde
~#**************#~
I felt like my whole relationship with you was a lie
~#**************#~
It was you and I, why did I think it was ride or die?
~#**************#~
‘Cause if you coulda took my life you woulda
~#**************#~
Its like you put a knife through my chest
~#**************#~
And pushed it right through to the
~#**************#~
Other side of my back and stuck a spike too, shoulda
~#**************#~
Put up more of a fight, but I couldnt
~#**************#~
At the time, no one could hurt me like you coulda
~#**************#~
Take you back now, whats the likelihood of that?
~#**************#~
Bite me, bitch, chew on a nineteen footer!
~#**************#~
‘Cause this morning I finally stood up
~#**************#~
Held my chin up, finally showed a sign of life in me for the
~#**************#~
First time since you left
~#**************#~
And left me with nothin but shattered dreams
~#**************#~
And the life we coulda had and we coulda been
~#**************#~
But Im breakin out of this slump Im in
~#**************#~
Pullin myself out of the dumps once again
~#**************#~
Im gettin up once and for all—fuck this shit!
~#**************#~
Ima be late for the pity party
~#**************#~
But youre never gonna beat me to the fuckin punch again
~#**************#~
Took it on the chin like a champ
~#**************#~
So dont lump me in with them chump-ions
~#**************#~
Im done bein your punching bag
~#**************#~
It was November 31st today
~#**************#~
Woulda been our anniversary
~#**************#~
Two years, but you left on the 1st of May
~#**************#~
I wrote it on a calendar, was gonna call
~#**************#~
But couldnt think of the words to say
~#**************#~
But they came to me just now—so I put em in a verse to lay
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
And I thank you (Uh), ‘cause you made me (Uh)
~#**************#~
A better person than I was
~#**************#~
But I hate you (Uh), ‘cause you drained me (Uh)
~#**************#~
I gave you all, you gave me none
~#**************#~
But if you blame me (Uh), youre crazy (Uh)
~#**************#~
And after all is said and done
~#**************#~
Im still angry, yeah, I may be
~#**************#~
I may never trust someone
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But you wont break me
~#**************#~
Youll just make me stronger than I was
~#**************#~
Before I met you, I bet you Ill be just fine without you
~#**************#~
And if I stumble, I wont crumble
~#**************#~
Ill get back up and uhh
~#**************#~
But Ima still be humble when I scream “Fuck you!”
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im stronger than I was
