[Intro – short drop / vocal chop]
Eh-eh-eh-eh
Eh-eh-eh-eh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah!
Verse 1
I’ve been walking on this broken ground,
Heard sweet words but they let me down.
Gave my heart, yeah I gave it all,
But every time I watched it fall.
I believed in every sign,
Thought your love was real this time.
Now I see it crystal clear,
I won’t let you anywhere near.
Pre-Chorus
I see right through your disguise,
No more tears, no more lies.
I’m awake, I’m alive,
This time I survive.
Chorus – DROP
Never my heart, it’s not for taking,
I learned the rules, no more breaking.
You won’t get in, not this time,
This heart is strong, this heart is mine.
Never my heart, don’t touch it now,
I built these walls, I know how.
Never my heart — no, never again,
This heart is mine till the end.
Verse 2
I was dancing in the firelight,
Chasing love through the darkest nights.
Every kiss felt so unreal,
Now I know how strength can feel.
I don’t need you to feel alive,
I don’t need you to survive.
I’m done playing all your games,
I won’t let you say my name.
Pre-Chorus
I see right through your disguise,
No more tears, no more lies.
I’m awake, I’m alive,
This time I survive.
Chorus – short drop
Never my heart, it’s not for taking,
I learned the rules, no more breaking.
You won’t get in, not this time,
This heart is strong, this heart is mine.
Never my heart, don’t touch it now,
I built these walls, I know how.
Final Chorus – BIG / hands-up
Never my heart, it’s not for taking,
I learned the rules, no more breaking.
You won’t get in — no, not this time,
This heart’s a fortress, this heart’s mine.
Never my heart, you can’t have it now,
I built these walls and I know how.
Never my heart — hear me say,
You can’t have it now, no way!
