[VERSE 1]

Don’t leave me in the dead cold night

Frightened at this bus stop

I need to whisper something hold me tight

Cause I don’t want them to eavesdrop

We’ve been on the road for quite some time

Tell me, why you so mean to me?

I know I ain’t got the best behavior

But it seems you just want to see...

[Chorus]

...me down

Sad clown tells my secrets aloud

You wanna tear me down

Paradise is being burnt to the ground

You wanna throw me out

Like other things you said

Words that go from A to Z

I can see what comes ahead

[POST Chorus]

You wanna tear me down

Sad clown tells my secrets around

You wanna tear me down

[VERSE 2]

It’s better left unsaid

The things running through my head

You scream that all you want is to be free

But why for this you need to see...

[Chorus]

...me down?

Sad clown tells my secrets aloud

You wanna tear me down

Paradise is being burnt to the ground

You wanna throw me out

Like other things you said

Words that go from A to Z

I can see what comes ahead

[POST Chorus]

You wanna tear me down

Sad clown tells my secrets around

You wanna tear me down

[BRIDGE]

Why you look so blue?

You got what you wanted, didn’t you?

Who you gonna call to?

What you gonna pursue?

[Chorus]

You wanna tear me down

Sad clown tells my secrets aloud

You wanna tear me down (you wanna tear me down)

Paradise is being burnt to the ground

You wanna throw me out

Like other things you said

Words that go from A to Z

I can see what comes ahead

[FINALE]

You wanna tear me down (you wanna tear me down)

(Down)

Tear me down
