[Verse 1] My mother says I need a plan, my doctor says I need a scan. My brother says I need a break, my boss says I should stay awake. My friends all send me books to read, “Ten easy ways to plant the seed.” I smile and say, “That's very kind,” then leave their good advice behind. [Pre-Chorus] You see a crack and call it wrong, I see a place where I belong. PLEASE DON'T FIX ME, I LIKE CHAOS ON MY SIDE. EVERY WRONG TURN IS A ROAD I WOULDN'T HIDE. PLEASE DON'T FIX ME, LET THE PIECES HIT THE FLOOR. I'LL MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING— THEN I'LL MAKE A LITTLE MORE. [Verse 2] My neighbour says I talk too loud, my teacher says I shame the crowd. My sister says I need more sleep, my phone says I should count my steps. They tell me how to eat and dress, how to breathe and handle stress. I tried their way for half a year— now I can finally hear myself here. [Pre-Chorus] You see a flaw and call it wrong, I see the place where I grew strong. [Chorus] PLEASE DON'T FIX ME, I LIKE CHAOS ON MY SIDE. EVERY WRONG TURN IS A ROAD I WOULDN'T HIDE. PLEASE DON'T FIX ME, LET THE PIECES HIT THE FLOOR. I'LL MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING— THEN I'LL MAKE A LITTLE MORE. [Bridge — stripped] If I fall, I'll rise again. If I lose, I'll count to ten. If I change, then let me change. That's the beauty of the strange. [Build] Don't fix! [Choir] DON'T FIX! [Male] Don't fix me! [Final Chorus] PLEASE DON'T FIX ME, I LIKE CHAOS ON MY SIDE. EVERY WRONG TURN IS A ROAD I WOULDN'T HIDE. PLEASE DON'T FIX ME, LET THE PIECES HIT THE FLOOR. I'LL MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING— THEN I'LL MAKE A LITTLE MORE [end]
