Lyrics
Tear It Out
Words & Music © 2013 by Mark Berry & Devin Melanson
What man of muscle
What man of steel
What man of might
Doesn’t know how it feels?
Feel it trapped inside you
The truth you cannot share
It’s burning a hole
It’s fighting for air
[CHORUS]
SUFFERING, STONE, SILENT
YOU WISH YOU COULD SHOUT
YOU WANT TO REACH INSIDE YOU
JUST, TEAR IT OUT
People crowd around you
Faces everywhere
Just need one moment
Without their stares
You’d never beg forgiveness
If they saw the truth
Still you keep them safe
You hide the proof
[CHORUS]
[Bridge]
….A wolf among them
….You help the sheep survive
….Would they follow if they knew
….The teeth inside?
[CHORUS]
