[Verse 1]
Shooting me with words but I won't let them bruise
Even though it hurts I won't show it to you
'Cause it will ricochet I won't let it by
I will look at you and tell you that I'm alright, like a ricochet
It will come back to you

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I don't care about you anymore
So you can't hurt me like you did before

[Chorus]
Let me tell you, now because my eyes are open
Your words will keep bouncing away
And even if you're trying to hurt me
My skin's getting thicker each day
I don't know how you fall asleep at night
Knowing that you're words are hurtful
It's just not right, now because my eyes are open
Your words will keep bouncing away
Like a ricochet
Like a ricochet
Like a ricochet
Like a ricochet

[Verse 2]
I used to let it in all the things that you said
You tried to turn me into somebody else
But it will ricochet I won't let it by
I will look at you and tell you that I'm alright
Like ricochet it will come back to you
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I don't care about you anymore
So you can't hurt me like you did before

[Chorus]
Let me tell you, now because my eyes are open
Your words will keep bouncing away
And even if you're trying to hurt me
My skin's getting thicker each day
I don't know how you fall asleep at night
Knowing that you're words are hurtful
It's just not right, now because my eyes are open
Your words will keep bouncing away
Like a ricochet
Like a ricochet
Like a ricochet
Like a ricochet

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Let me tell you, now because my eyes are open
Your words will keep bouncing away
And even if you're trying to hurt me
My skin's getting thicker each day
I don't know how you fall asleep at night
Knowing that you're words are hurtful
It's just not right, now because my eyes are open
Your words will keep bouncing away
Like a ricochet
[Outro]
Ooh
Like a ricochet
Oh, it's like a ricochet
