I heard this song a million times and liked it enough. But when I saw her perform
it live and solo, I absolutely fell in love with it. Enjoy!

I never get the truth, I never get the truth
Chorus
Bm C G
I know the darkness pulls on you, but it's just a point of view

When you're outside looking in, you belong to someone

Like your heart could break in two, someone loves you

My one and only wrecking ball, and you're crashing through my walls
