I took in the most that I could
I never imagined that I would
Be feeling so misunderstood
Mmmm just following lines
You race in my mind like a car
You’ve beaten my heart so damn far
And now I’ve been pacing the wall
‘Cause you’re under my hurt

Never thought I could
Love you no never
Never thought that I would
Ever try to be anything better

My heart’s beaten better alone
And if it is broke
Why let you know
This heart’s not your skipping stone
If I’m sinking water
Then why even bother
Just leave it alone
Mmmm this heart’s not your skipping stone

So maybe I should settle down
And find a new man
Let him throw my world around
All his blueberry lies
I know there isn’t a room
Was left in the desk now
It’s time to school
Mmmm now, I’m a lovesick fool

Never knew that you
Could just hold me hostage
I’m losing my cool
Through the pain somehow
Don’t want you to stop it

My heart’s beaten better alone
And if it is broke
Why let you know
This heart’s not your skipping stone
If I’m sinking water
Then why even bother
Just leave it alone
Hmmm ’cause this heart’s not your skipping stone

All the time
I never let you in
Was a lie
I wasn’t letting you in
And on the date
You let me cry
Was a lie

My heart’s beaten better alone
And if it is broke
Why let you know
This heart’s not your skipping stone
If I’m sinking water
Why even bother
Just leave it alone

If it is broke
Why let you know
This heart’s not your skipping stone
If I’m sinking water
Why even bother
Just leave me alone

This heart’s not your skipping stone
