[Verse 1]
Maybe it is the things I say
Maybe I should think before I speak
But I thought I knew enough
To know myself and do what is right for me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And these walls I am building now
You used to bring them down
And the tears I am crying out
You used to wipe away

[Chorus]
I thought you said it was easy listening to your heart
I thought you said I would be okay
So why am I breaking apart?
Don't wanna to be torn, don't wanna to be torn
Don't wanna to be torn, don't wanna to be torn

[Verse 2]
Don't make me choose between
What I want and what you think I need
'Cause I will always be your little girl
But even little girls have got to dream

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now it all feels like a fight
You were always on my side
And the lonely I feel now
You used to make it go away
[Chorus]
I thought you said it was easy listening to your heart
I thought you said I would be okay
So why am I breaking apart?
Don't wanna to be torn

[Bridge]
Why is this all so confusing, complicated and consuming?
Why does all this make me angry?
I wanna go back to being happy
These tears I am crying now, you used to wipe away

[Chorus]
I thought you said it was easy listening to your heart
I thought you said I would be okay
So why am I breaking apart?
Don't wanna to be torn, don't wanna to be torn
Don't wanna to be torn, don't wanna to be torn
Don't wanna to be torn, don't wanna to be torn
Don't wanna to be torn, don't wanna to be torn
