[Intro]

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut

And my weakness is that I care too much

And our scars remind me that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel


[Verse 1]

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down, and I just want to be alone

I'm pissed 'cause you came around, why don't you just go home?

'Cause I've channeled all your pain and I can't help you fix yourself

You're making me insane, all I can say is


[Chorus]

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut

And my weakness is that I care too much

And our scars remind us that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel


[Verse 2]

I tried to help you once against my own advice

I saw you goin' down, but you never realized

That you're drowning in the water, so I offered you my hand

Compassion's in my nature, tonight is our last stand


[Chorus]

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut

And my weakness is that I care too much

And our scars remind us that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel


[Verse 3]

I’m drunk and I’m feeling down, and I just want to be alone

You should've never come around, why don’t you just go home?

'Cause you’re drowning in the water and I tried to grab your hand

I left my heart open, but you didn’t understand (But you didn’t understand)

Go fix yourself!


[Bridge]

I can't help you fix yourself, but at least I can say I tried

I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life

I can't help you fix yourself, but at least I can say I tried

I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life


[Chorus]

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut

And my weakness is that I care too much

And our scars remind us that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut

And my weakness is that I care too much

And our scars remind us that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel
