And another one bites the dust, oh why can I not conquer love?           
And I might have thought that we were one, wanted to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it, I wanted it so bad, but there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust, oh lets be clear, I trust no one

You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace

[Chorus]
   C                     G                     D                     Em            D

But I've got thick skin and an elastic heart, but your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard, oh I may snap and I move fast

   C                   G                   D                    Em            D

E|-------------------|---3---------------|--------------------|-------------|-------------| (4x)

You won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
Oh, I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart

[Verse 2 + Bridge]
   C                   G                   D                    Em            D

And I will stay up through the night, oh let's be clear, won't close my eyes
And I know that I can survive, I'll walk through fire to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad, I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust, it's hard to lose a chosen one

You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
