Lyrics
Torn Down
Words and Music by Matt Zimbelmann
I said something, and it went right to your head
I guess there's times I'd say things better left unsaid
I sat at the bar, I smoked some cigarettes
Said I was gonna call you but I have a couple drinks instead
My mind's made up, I said, I will not break or bend
I'm torn down
Torn to the ground
Can't get back up again
I get that feeling, like the walls are closing in
Another day like this I'm gonna jump out of my skin
But still I'm hanging here my patience growing thin
I just can't see my way out of the wreck I'm in
I have to go, it seems we can not make amends
I'm torn down
Torn to the ground
Can't get back up again
So I'm standing in that way beside you hiding something
Wrote a letter left it on the table by the bed
Couldn't bring myself to wake you up and leave it like this
I've gone up the road alone instead
I guess that all the while the ironies stacked up to fall
And now I can't help thinking there was nothing there at all
Looks like now I'll walk away with less than what I brought
I spent all the while convinced it's something that it's not
Somehow I always knew we weren't gonna end up friends
I tore up the road alone
Woke up alone at home
Tore up that note I wrote it said
I'm torn down
Torn to the ground
Can't get back up again
