I've been told, "you're worthless kid
You'll never make it off this dirty ground
Even if you did, you won't make it far, you won't mean too much"
A part of me's gone but I'm not giving up 'cause

You see past my cuts and scars
That's the way You love me
You can fix my broken heart
That's the way You love me

And it's so much better now
But it doesn't last for long
Gotta drown them out
And they keep saying, "you won't make it far, you won't mean too much"
A part of me's gone but I'm not giving up 'cause

You see past my cuts and scars
That's the way You love me
You can fix my broken heart
That's the way You love me
That's the way You love me

Sticks they don't feel good and stones they hit hard
Some people mean well, but they'll tear you apart
They said I don't matter, You said they were wrong
But they're not the reason I'm singing this song
(4x)
You see past my cuts and scars
That's the way You love me
You can fix my broken heart
That's the way You love me
(3x)
