Take this heart, and put it on your palette And paint yourself a wall around it You can make something good from this You can make something true from this Well we'll take the past, and smash it with a mallet We'll burn it up and dance around it We can make something beautiful from this We can make something whole from this When god made you the angels were envious Nothing you did could justify deserving this I've been pushed, beaten, and almost broken But I'm not gonna let you down No, I'm not gonna let you down like the others did I'm not gonna let you ... Well he can take his lies and pathetic little alibies And shove them where the sun don't shine He ain't got nothing good for you What did he ever have to offer you Could he feed you creatively, inspire any energy Make you feel like you're a woman of integrity Did he kickstart your soul Make you want to unfold I can't tell you how long I've been waiting For someone Just like You Just like you I've been pushed, beaten, and almost broken But I'm not gonna let you down No, I'm not gonna let you down like the others did I'm not gonna let you down I've been pushed, beaten, and almost broken But I'm not gonna let you down No, I'm not gonna let you down like the others did I'm not gonna let you down I've been pushed, beaten, and almost broken But I'm not gonna let you down No, I'm not gonna let you down like the others did I'm not gonna let you down I've been pushed, beaten, and almost broken But I'm not gonna let you down No, I'm not gonna let you down like the others did I'm not gonna let you down
