Sharon Van Etten
Beaten Down
[Verse 1]
Your big ol' heart takes a lot on
Shoulders the world
It takes a lot to unfold
And you compromise so
Don't try to understand
[Pre-Chorus]
Your big ol' heart gets beaten down
[Chorus]
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
[Post-Chorus]
Don't you hear it beatin' now?
[Verse 2]
We dig on life
You try to see her but she wants you back
And you see it all over her face
Our freedom
We breathe in
We have a good life
Then you see her like that
[Pre-Chorus]
Your big ol' heart gets beaten down
[Chorus]
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
[Bridge]
Don't get shot down in the dark alley
Where the air's smoke
And we're so misunderstood
[Pre-Chorus]
Your big ol' heart gets beaten down
[Chorus]
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
It ain't beaten down
[Outro]
Don't mean you're beaten now
