Tear it back, tear it slow
Everyday the same joke
Listen close, there's something you need to hear
Lose yourself, lose control
If just this once
I never think it's funny
The truth becomes a dream
Nothing's ever what it seems
I fought away this desperation
And we reach for what we're missing in ourselves
I've made attempts to quell temptation
I swear to god 
I triedYou could never change me
We could never compromise
We don't know how to let love in
Don't you cry for me
Cause we reach for what we're missing in . . .
Because I'm already dead
