[Verse 1:] The fights, those nights I tried to pretend it don't
hurt The way, I prayed Someday that you would love me Really,
completely Just how I wanted it to be But no, so wrong Can't believe I
stayed with you so long
[B-Chorus:] You hit, you spit, you split,
ever-y bit of me, yeah You stole, you broke, you're cold You're such a
joke to me, yeah
[Chorus:] For every last bruise you gave me For
every time I sat in tears For the million ways you hurt me I just wanna
tell you this You broke my world, made me strong Thank you Messed up
my dreams, made me strong Thank you
[Verse 2:] My head, near
dead Just the way you wanted it My soul, stone cold Cos I was under
you're control So young, so dumb Knew just how to make me succumb But
I un-derstand To make yourself feel like a man
[B-Chorus:] You
hit, you spit, you split, ever-y bit of me, yeah You stole, you broke,
you're cold You're such a joke to me, yeah
[Chorus:] For every
last bruise you gave me For every time I sat in tears For the million
ways you hurt me I just wanna tell you this You broke my world, made me
strong Thank you Messed up my dreams, made me strong Thank
you
[Middle eight:] You coulda had it all babe It coulda been so
right I woulda given you everything Morning through night Yeah, you
taught me some lessons Those are my blessings That won't happen
again Thank you
