[Verse 1] How many times and how many ways Can I give you my heart and still walk away I lay it down You fold it in pain I patch up the cut Then I bleed again I keep saying I'm fine But it sticks to my skin Every time I reach out I get pulled back in How many times and how many ways How many times Still I pray [Chorus] I show how I love and it turns to pain I can't just shake it off No, I can't shake it off Pull myself up Dust it off, dust it off Pull myself up Dust it off, dust it off [Verse 2] Your name on my tongue like salt on a wound I smile in the mirror, but it's already through I give you the soft parts, you sharpen the rest I keep trying to heal, you keep testing my chest I keep saying I'm fine But it sticks to my skin Every time I reach out I get pulled back in [Chorus] How many times and how many ways How many times Still I pray I show how I love and it turns to pain I can't just shake it off No, I can't shake it off Pull myself up Dust it off, dust it off Pull myself up Dust it off, dust it off [Bridge] Maybe I'm not broken Maybe I'm just worn Maybe I keep holding What keeps leaving torn I don't want the ending I don't want the cost I just want your hands to Stop feeling like loss How many times and how many ways How many times Still I pray [Outro] I show how I love and it turns to pain I can't just shake it off No, I can't shake it off Pull myself up Dust it off, dust it off Pull myself up Dust it off, dust it off
