TEAR IT DOWN
WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON
2017
MAKE NO MISTAKE
A BROKEN HEART CAN BRING YOU DOWN ALL THE WAY
BLACK DARKNESS BEFORE MY SWOLLEN EYES
STRUGGLE TO TAKE BACK CONTROL
IF I ONLY KNEW, SAW THIS COMING FROM YOU
MAYBE I WOULDN'T BE THIS FAR IN
I PUT MY TRUST OUT IN THE OPEN
FOR YOU TO SEE
YOU TOOK IT AND CAME TO STAND BY ME
STEP BY STEP THROUGH THIS LIFE
IT WAS GOING GOOD OR SO I THOUGHT
YOU GO AHEAD AND CHANGE YOUR MIND
AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO CHANGE IT BACK
A RAINBOW OF COLORS FADES TO BLACK
WITH HEAVY HEART MY PLANE DISAPPEARS INTO THE SKY
NO POINT IN LOOKING BACK
I DIDN'T WRITE THE END
CAN'T EMBRACE THE MESSAGE YOU SEND
TEAR IT DOWN TO THE GROUND
I'LL MAKE THE CUT MYSELF
NO MORE TEARS AND WHY'S
NO MORE TIES
JUST ANOTHER ENDING, FOR A HEART ALREADY SCARRED
THINK IT WOULDN'T BE SO HARD
ALL I'VE GOT IS EXACTLY WHAT I SEE
LOOKING BACK FROM THE MIRROR AT ME
I SHOULD OF NEVER PLAYED FOR KEEPS
KEPT MY HEART TO MYSELF
IT'S NOT LIKE I HAVEN'T LOST AT LOVE BEFORE
WHY WOULD I GO BACK FOR MORE
MAYBE MY HOPES ARE TOO HIGH
EACH TIME I SEE ANOTHER DREAM DIE
HOPES THE ONLY THING LEFT
WITHOUT HOPE WHAT'S TO CARRY ON
SOMETHING I'VE BEEN SAVING
THAT NO ONE CAN SHAKE LOOSE
ONLY THING THAT'S ALL MINE
ALL THE COLOR THAT WAS FADED
IS SLOWLY COMING BACK
BLACK DARKNESS GIVES WAY TO HOPES AND DREAMS
AND SUNSETS LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN
TEAR IT DOWN RIGHT TO THE GROUND
IT'S ALWAYS BETTER THE NEXT TIME
TEAR IT DOWN, IT'S ALWAYS BETTER
THE NEXT TIME AROUND
