[Verse 1: Kacey Musgraves]
I'm not afraid of a bite
I can take it
Watch how I bend, but I'm
I'm not breaking
[Pre-Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
I've been to hell and back
Golden hour faded black
Say that it ain't coming back
Ain't coming back
[Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
But you're gonna feel me
You're gonna feel me
You're gonna feel me
When I'm done, when I'm done
What doesn't kill me
What doesn't kill me
What doesn't kill me
Better run, better run
[Verse 2: Kacey Musgraves]
I'm not afraid to connect
With something real
And just let it go when I know
That it just don't fit in
[Pre-Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
I've been to hell and back
Golden hour faded black
Say that it ain't coming back
Ain't coming back
[Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
But you're gonna feel me
You're gonna feel me
You're gonna feel mе
When I'm done, when I'm donе
What doesn't kill me
What doesn't kill me
What doesn't kill me
Better run, better run
[Outro: Kacey Musgraves]
Oh, oh
What doesn't kill me
Oh, oh
You're gonna feel me
Oh, oh
What doesn't kill me
Oh, oh
Better run, better run
