[Verse 1] Told them your dreams, and they all started laughing I guess you're out of your mind 'til it actually happens [Pre-Chorus] I'm the small town One in seven billion Why can't it be me? [Chorus] They told me I was out there, tried to knock me down Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies They said I'm going nowhere, tried to count me out Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies [Verse 2] When did we all stop believing in magic? Why did we put all our hopes in a box in the attic? [Pre-Chorus] I'm the long shot I'm the Hail Mary Why can't it be me? [Chorus] They told me I was out there, tried to knock me down (Knock me down) Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies They said I'm going nowhere, tried to count me out Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies [Bridge] Hey, hey Oh, cover me in daisies Hey, hey [Pre-Chorus] I'm the small town One in seven billion Why can't it be me? [Chorus] They told me I was out there, tried to knock me down Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies They said I'm going nowhere, tried to count me out (Count me out) Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies
