Lyrics

Tearing at the Seams

Wait, did you think that I would break

Underneath the pressure and the

Now the heart if not to feel

Is a wandering waste in the driest land

Now from these heights of this hills

There's a funny thing that no one else can see

There's a liar, a liar on the stage

With a young child's eyes

And it happens all wrong and only

Half of it's seen from here

Where has all the time gone?

In separate ways it runs long

A hundred miles built upon us

It's tearing at the seams of all that's been

Tearing at the seams of all that's been

Wait, is this a game

Or am I walking into a snare?

Now these lies will spread

Until we're choking on the innocent

They have half of us tied and

Half of us in chains

We're all covering our eyes and

Covering our mouths just the same

Where has the time gone?

In separate ways it runs long

A hundred miles built upon us

It's tearing at the seams of all that's been

Tearing at the seams of all that's been

It's tearing at the seams of all that's been

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us away

They're gonna have to drag us

They're gonna have to drag us

They're gonna have to drag us away
