[Verse 1]
Selling stories that were overrated
In this world so complicated
Felt so right, you tried to make it wrong
Why can't we all just get along?
From the start something wasn't right
I used to cry myself to sleep at night
Told myself stand up be strong
This kind of phase doesn't last for long
And every time you try to knock me down
Gonna pick my back up off the ground
The battle never ends

[Chorus]
You can tear me apart
You can rip me to pieces
Try breaking me down
But I'll never be beaten
You can say that you won
But I'll never believe it
'Cause I can't be defeated
Made a mistake, swore I'll never repeat it
Lost my heart for a second
But it never stopped beating
I smile through the tears so the way that I see it
I can't be defeated

[Verse 2]
There are times that I couldn't take it
Never felt so violated
At the risk of sounding so cliché
I just gotta call a spade a spade
Hurts me right to the core
I can't take this anymore
Getting tired of the same old song
Final chorus, now I'm moving on
Things ain't fair in love in war
Never been the kind to be ignored
Tried to push me to the edge

[Chorus]
You can tear me apart
You can rip me to pieces
Try breaking me down
But I'll never be beaten
You can say that you won
But I'll never believe it
'Cause I can't be defeated
Made a mistake swore I'll never repeat it
Lost my heart for a second
But it never stopped beating
I smile through the tears so the way that I see it
I can't be defeated

[Bridge]
Yeah, nothing is impossible
Nothing is unreachable
If you only believe then you get what you need
So keep on holdin'on

[Chorus]
You can tear me apart
You can rip me to pieces
Try breaking me down
But I'll never be beaten
You can say that you won but I'll never believe it
'Cause I can't be defeated
Made a mistake, swore Ill never repeat it
Lost my heart for a second
But it never stopped beating
I smile through the tears so the way that I see it
I can't be defeated
