​make you Lyrics by Lindsay Ell

heart theory

2020

[Verse 1]
Thirteen, staring in the mirror
You still look so innocent but that was all gone yesterday
At eighteen, you'll see it a little clearer
As something that was taken, before you could give it away
[Pre-Chorus]
You'll feel dirty, you'll feel guilty for what was done to you
They'll be a canyon in your chest for what you can't undo
[Chorus]
It's gonna make you hate yourself
When you didn't hate yourself at all
It's gonna make you build a fortress
Where you never had a wall
It's gonna make you question God
And wonder if he even cares
'Cause it's so messed up, it's so wrong
It's just so unfair
And when you're broken past the point
Of what a broken heart can take
The cracks'll heal but you'll always feel the break
And that's what's gonna make you
[Verse 2]
At twenty, it hits you like a racecar
It still feels like a new scar
One that you dont talk about
At twenty-five, you'll find the strength to say it
And even though you can't change it
There's peace in saying it out loud
[Pre-Chorus]
You'll feel angry, you'll feel sad once you see it's not your fault
And that canyon in your chest is that little girl you lost
[Chorus]
It's gonna make you hate yourself
When you didn't hate yourself at all
It's gonna make you build a fortress
Where you never had a wall
It's gonna make you question God
And wonder if he even cares
'Cause it's so messed up, it's so wrong
It's just so unfair
And when you're broken past the point
Of what a broken heart can take
The cracks'll heal but you'll always feel the break
And that's what's gonna make you
[Chorus]
It's gonna make you love yourself
When you don't love yourself at all
'Cause if you can get through that
There's no valley that's too tall
And all those questions you ask God
Are still gonna be there
'Cause it's so messed up, it's so wrong
It's just so unfair
And it's amazing where a broken heart can take you
All the things that bend and stain and break you
That's what's gonna make you
But that's what's gonna make you
