[Verse 1]
And only while the sun was down
Yeah, only when the world was quiet
Could I belong to you
Forgot about reality
You got me high on poetry
So deep, it can be real

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't hold back
I'm shouting out in the night
I'm a ghost surviving the light
I can't breathe when you're out of sight, I

[Chorus]
I am torn, I am torn
Build me up, build me up
Dead alive, dead alive
'Cause you broke me into pieces
You broke me into pieces

I am torn, I am torn
Build me up, build me up
Dead alive, dead alive
'Cause you broke me into pieces
You broke me into pieces
[Verse 2]
I'm frozen in the summer heat
I'm dancing, I can't hear the beat
Baby, I
I'm incomplete

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't hold back
I'm shouting out in the night
I'm a ghost surviving the light
I can't breathe when you're out of sight, I

[Chorus]
I am torn, I am torn
Build me up, build me up
Dead alive, dead alive
'Cause you broke me into pieces
You broke me into pieces

I am torn, I am torn
Build me up, build me up
Dead alive, dead alive
'Cause you broke me into pieces
You broke me into pieces

[Bridge]
When the walls came down
Did you hear the sound
Of a beating heart
Laying on the ground
There's a hole in me
Hope one day you'll see
There's a beating heart
And it's ripped apart

[Outro]
I am torn
'Cause you broke me into pieces
You broke me into pieces
'Cause you broke me into pieces
You broke me into pieces
