Tearin' Away

Would I miss cut ties tomorrow?

With a gift of love that's borrowed

And I won't forget the times

And I won't forget the signs

And I won't forget how high you made me feel

So maybe I might miss, avoid it

With TV eyes, I'll wake, disturb it

And in the precious voice they found without some searching

That’s reassurin', inside it’s hurtin'

And I won't forget the times

And I won't forget the signs

And I won't forget how high you made me feel

Sometimes wishin' I could forget what it is I've been paid

I look around, I drift all day

If I bid four-hundred dollars on a chance to rewind

I take it in a second without a delay

But bit-by-bit I'm slowly tearin' away

It’s better said now

I cleaned up and got a job that pays

But I understand you

You'll be my friend until I die, 'til I die

And I won't forget the times

And I won't forget the signs

And I won't forget how high you made me feel

Sometimes wishin' I could forget what it is I've been paid

I look around, I drift all day

If I bid four-hundred dollars on a chance to rewind

I take it in a second without a delay

But bit-by-bit I’m slowly tearin' away

But bit-by-bit I’m slowly tearin' away

But bit-by-bit I’m slowly tearin' away
