You're always taking it for granted
You keep on pushing your way through
I've been there now, when it comes to it
You don't have a clue
Your life is moving, I don't notice
You throw shit just to make yourself feel ill
Well, never will
You'll be satisfied
With yourself
You're fading away
Don't tear me down
Tear me down
You spread your wings, you let me fall
But it didn't hurt at all
Those dirty words
They spread in front of me
I brush them off, you watch me fall
Don't tear me down
Tear me down
So here I stand (Here I stand)
In a world full of hate and anger
In a world with no love to give around
So here I am (Here I am)
With a sink and no brow
You will fight, you won't bring me down
We'll fight to the bitter end
Hand in hand
You're fading away
Don't tear me down
Tear me down
You spread your wings, you let me fall
But it didn't hurt at all
Those dirty words
They spread in front of me
I brush them off, you watch me fall
Don't tear me down
You tell yourself these words don't fly
Deep down you know you're wasting away
Wasting away
You tell yourself these words don't fly
Deep down you know you're wasting away
Wasting away
Wasting away
Don't tear me down
Those dirty words
Don't tear me down
You let me fall down
You let me fall
