Another one bites the dust

(Verse 1) Another one bites the dust, a love lost in the fight Why can't I conquer love, hold it close and shining bright? We built a dream, a castle in the sand But naive hearts, they never understand (Pre-Chorus) I craved it, oh, I craved it with a fire in my soul But red flags waved, a story yet untold (Chorus) Another one bites the dust, another broken trust No more naivety, my heart has turned to rust You didn't break me, though the scars may stay I'll fight for peace, a brighter coming day (Verse 2) Thick skin I wear, a heart that can rebound But your sharp words, they cut so deep and profound Like a rubber band, stretched to the limit's end I might snap fast, but won't let my spirit bend (Chorus) 'Cause I've got an elastic heart, it bends but doesn't break Through sleepless nights, for my own sake I'll rise above, the ashes and the pain Walk through fire, this life I'll reclaim (Bridge) This life I crave, with every ounce of might Pushing forward, bathed in morning light The loss stings deep, a chosen one set free But my spirit soars, forever wild and me (Chorus) You didn't break me, no, the fight's still in my soul I'll fight for peace, to make myself whole (Outro) Thick skin I wear, a heart that can rebound Though your words may sting, I won't fall down This elastic heart, it beats with steady fire Burning brighter, rising ever higher Yeah, I've got an elastic heart, yeah, I've got an elastic heart It bends but never breaks, tearing itself apart
