Tear Apart

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought I saw myself in you that night
The way you moved, the way you held me tight
But what I found beneath that perfect shine
Was just a game of who could cross the line
[Pre-chorus]
Every promise made was paper-thin
Every touch concealed the pain within
(Oh-oh, the pain within)
[Chorus]
We reflect what breaks us most
Dancing with our private ghosts
Trading scars like valentine cards
Till we tear ourselves apart
(Till we tear apart)
[Verse 2]
Remember how we'd laugh at other pairs
Who'd burn each other down without a care?
Now look at us, we're just the same as them
Two broken hearts that we can't mend
[Pre-chorus]
Every sorry turns to spite
Every truth becomes a lie
(Oh-oh, becomes a lie)
[Chorus]
We reflect what breaks us most
Dancing with our private ghosts
Trading scars like valentine cards
Till we tear ourselves apart
(Till we tear apart)
[Post-chorus]
La-la-la, we're falling faster
La-la-la, sweet disaster
[Bridge]
I write these words at midnight
Trying to understand
How we became the monsters
We swore we'd never be
[Sound effect: distant heartbeat]
[Final Chorus]
We reflect what breaks us most
Dancing with our private ghosts
Trading scars like valentine cards
Till we tear ourselves apart
(Till we fade away)
