Lyrics
Tear this apart
Down in front cause you?re fuckin up my show again.
The projector clicks, we walk into a black hush.
You forgot your lines but baby don?t you sweat it,
The director slipped his tongue in every credit.
Get you back home on time, listen to my starlet?s shine.
Come meet me on the floor, yeah I?m the one worth dying for,
Come down, down, down, cause the high you feel ain?t real no more.
And when you see the light, oh baby girl you realize
You can ask me to get stronger but you can?t tell me to close my eyes?
Chorus: It got so bad already, I say we tear this shit apart (x2)
Down in front cause you?re crushin on the wrong young man
Should we hold our breath like thieves beneath the floodlights?
And we might survive so baby don?t you sweat it
Smart enough to try but too dumb to regret it
So we pray for daylight acting like we feel alright
How smashing? In the aisle they gnash their teeth to cure their smiles
Come down, down, down ain?t it what you wanted all the while
Just how a star should rise in powder skin and candy lies
So I hope to be your coward, cause your heroes don?t come out alive
Chorus: It got so bad already, I say we tear this shit apart (x2)
I say we tear this shit apart
Down (x12)
Shut-up (x8)
