[Verse 1]
I'm dying to catch my breath
Oh why don't I ever learn?
I've lost all my trust
Though I've surely tried to turn it around

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
When you hold me in your embrace

[Chorus]
Don't tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear me down
You've opened the door now, don't let it close

[Verse 2]
I'm here on the edge again
I wish I could let it go
I know that I'm only one step away
From turning it around

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
When you hold me in your embrace

[Chorus]
Don't tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear it down, what's left of me
Make my heart a better place

[Bridge]
I tried many times but nothing was real
Make it fade away, don't break me down
I want to believe that this is for real
Save me from my fear
Don't tear me down

[Chorus]
Don't tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Don't tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear it down, what's left of me
Make my heart a better place
Make my heart a better place
