Easy to be taken with everything you're saying
Make us perfect and say it all again
But if every single second's killing
Tell me I'm dreaming
I'll sleep it all away

Tear out this love
Tear up the root
Tear out this love
Tear me from you

You know you can tell me anything you want to
Tell me something that I'd never know
You could be cautious as the words roll over your tongue
I'm stung with sick discovery

Tear out this love
Tear up the root
Tear out this love
Tear me from you

Tear me from the complicated questions
Taking all the empty spaces inside me
I don't want to hear these simple answers
But complicated answers
Never did you any justice anyway
And I don't want to hear you lie to me
Complicated as we are
We're going to have to burn it all away

Tell me now if every single second's killing
Tell me I'm dreaming

Complicated questions
Taking all the empty spaces inside me
I don't want to hear these simple answers
But complicated answers
Never did you any justice anyway
And I don't want to hear you lie to me
Complicated as we are
We're gonna tear up this love

Tear out this love
Tear up the root
Tear out this love
Tear me from you
