"Tearing Me Down" - written by Lucy Zirins (Copyright Gingersnap Music 2013)

A song about breaking free from a bad relationship

lyrics

How can we fight when there ain’t nothing to fight for?
How can you say I do nothing? How could I do more?
You’re here with me but I feel like I’m on my own
Bitter words, they’re unspoken, but the blame’s left with me I know

You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh
You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh

What’s more to say? And how could I say more?
When we don’t even talk about anything anymore?
We’re getting by but that barely makes a life
I’m empty inside. There’s no more tears left to cry

You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh
You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh

And I’m tired of your lies, your hatred in disguise
Of a love that we once knew
And I was lost in the haze and I couldn’t walk away
But I’m leaving you this time it’s true
You’ve been tearing me down

There was a time when I loved you
Nobody else would do, yeah
Then came the thunder and the rain and the crashing of the waves
And we were drowning in all of our fears
And the world that we’ve got, well it don’t mean a lot
When you’ve lost all your hope and belief

Stop tearing me down. Oh oh, yeah yeah yeah
You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh
You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh
You’ve been tearing me down. Oh oh, oh oh oh
So I’m leaving you now
