Lyrics

Tearing

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.

The way you look at me

Is tearing me apart

And the way I make you feel

Is tearing you apart

And the things we're doing to each other

Is tearing us apart

Look at you and me, tearing each other apart

I don't mean to do it

You don't mean to do it

So we better stop it now

Because we're tearing each other apart

It's hard to be alone

But it's harder to be with you

I'm a lying liar with my pants on fire

Tearing myself apart

Slamming down the phone right in your face

Tearing you apart

So close, too close, not close enough

Tearing each other apart

When I see you

I want to tell you

But then I lose the words

And it tears me apart

Better walk away

Before we crawl away

I've got a hole inside

And I keep it deep inside

And I'm going to go inside

And it's there I'm going to hide

Because I've got to get away

To see if I'm ok

Sometimes things don't work out

It tears you apart, it tears me apart

Sometimes happens all the time

And I'm feeling torn apart
