We threw words Like they were sharp knives Feel like we tripped over a land mine You said we lost love You made your mind up And I just got quiet My body went numb I pretend that I can handle it And if I hold my head up I won't drown Can't let go You're like a chemical You're racing through me My heart just pounds, pounds, pounds CHORUS It's getting louder, louder Every time I think about ya, about ya I'll be better off without ya, without ya I wish my heart would stop, wish my heart would stop Beating me up Beating me up Beating me up 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 CHORUSx1 I wish my heart would stop I wish my heart would stop How'd I let you get the best of me How'd my heart become my enemy How'd I let you get the best of me How'd my heart become my enemy (Beating me up, beating me up) It's getting louder (louder) Every time I think about ya (about ya) And I'd be better off without ya (without ya) I wish my heart would stop, I wish my heart would stop Beating me up Beating me up up up I wish my heart would, I wish my heart would stop Beating me up Beating me up
