Joe Zook - Beating Me Up lyrics

[Verse 1] We threw words like they were sharp knives Fell 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 racing 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) 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) 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
