[Intro]

Mm-hmm, mm-mm


[Verse 1]

You say I care too much about what people think

And I'm always lost inside the same old things

Wastin' all my energy on me

And I never think before I speak

You tell me that my ego's gonna hold me back

And I can't help thinkin' that I'm just all that

Guess I'm just my own worst enemy

Will you be the one to set me free?


[Pre-Chorus]

You say I'm dumb, you say I'm crazy

You say I work too hard, then I'm lazy

And while that hurts to hear, I know it's true

You make me wanna change it all for you


[Chorus]

Oh, I'm so thankful that you put me in my place

No one's ever loved me real enough to say it right to my face

I'm so thankful that you counted all my scars

No one's ever loved me real enough to pull my whole world apart

And put it back together, mm-mm

Put it back together, mm, oh yeah


[Verse 2]

You know it's never been a little diamond ring

Keepin' it together when the last bell sings

I just hope you never wanna leave

You're the only one who makes my heart beat

And if I'm not myself, you always call me out

Keepin' me together when I have my doubts

Am I just my own worst enemy?

Will you be the one to set me free?


[Pre-Chrous]

You say I'm dumb, you say I'm crazy

You say I work too hard, then I'm lazy

And while that hurts to hear, I know it's true

You make me wanna change it all for you


[Chorus]

Oh, I'm so thankful that you put me in my place

No one's ever loved me real enough to say it right to my face

I'm so thankful that you counted all my scars

No one's ever loved me real enough to pull my whole world apart

And put it back together, mm-mm

Put it back together, mm-mm


[Bridge]

Through the ups and all the downs

All the blues and all the browns

You're the gravity that grounds

While I'm circling around
