[Verse 1]
I'm your nightclub toilet
And you're my yipped out teen
I'm your start and finish line
You're my everything between
I'm your fast food restaurant
And you're my drunken brawl
I'm your faded graffiti
Will you be my council wall?

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm a homeless beggar
You're the pennies in my cup
I'm the paper, you're the shredder
And I love when you tear me up

[Chorus]
When you tear me up
When you tear me up
When you tear me down
And you tear me down

[Verse 2]
And I'm your desolate building
You're the rock upon my roof
I'm a bloody crime scene
You are my convicting proof
And I am a trembling zombie
And you're my moving meal
I'm a petty thief
And you're the pointless junk I steal
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm a homeless beggar
You're the pennies in my cup
I'm the paper, you're the shredder
And I love when you tear me up

[Chorus]
When you tear me up
When you tear me up
When you tear me down
And you tear me down
When you tear me up
When you tear me up
When you tear me down
And you tear me down

[Bridge]
Stroke my spine while I'm sleeping
Bring me to my knees with your kiss
In the darkest night, come creeping
Tell me everything you've missed
Hold me 'til my ribs are broken
Tighter than anyone could know
Throw me out into the open
My body can't feel the cold
[Chorus]
You tear me up
When you tear me up
When you tear me down
And you tear me down
When you tear me up
When you tear me up
When you tear me down
And you tear me down, down, down, down
