Lyrics
Don't Tear Us Apart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
At the first sing of hardship, many bite the hand that feeds
And when there's trouble, oh, they simply cut and run
And when there's fear, a man will slit the throat of his neighbor
In a desperate search for comfort and love
Don't tear us apart
Will you show us, some hidin' in this trouble, here where it starts
You won't tear us apart
When your spirits are down and you've lost your way
And man's character once again falls on its face
Will somebody please come, aid those helpless in need
And renew our faith in this human race
Don't tear us apart [x4]
Will you show us, some hidin' in this trouble, here where it starts
You won't tear us apart
Don't tear us apart
You gotta show some heart
Don't tear us apart
You gotta show some heart
At the first sing of hardship, many bite the hand that feeds
And when there's trouble, oh, they simply cut and run
And when there's fear, a man will slit the throat of his neighbor
In a desperate search for comfort and love
Don't tear us apart
Will you show us, some hidin' in this trouble, here where it starts
You won't tear us apart
