Tear It All Away

People say to see is to believe

Then they just believe in that they can perceive

What they see is not the total view

Filtered between the me and you

Ah, but i'm trying so hard

Just to tell you i care

And i've wanted so long, to tear this all away

Tear it all away

People say well you just had to be there

And all the time you know they've never been there

And it makes me sad to sit and think

Of all those empty souls nearly at the brink

Ah, but i'm trying so hard

Just to keep to myself

The things that i hope will tear it all away

Tear it all away

People grow up and learn to drive some car

But i did that and it doesn't get you far

The things you want are never to be found

And in the end it's all some running round

Ah, but i'm trying so hard

Just to open my eyes

To seeing some things that tear it all away

Tear it all away

I thought you would know

I thought you would know

People say they think that they are sure

But they turn away and don't go back no more

What they saw was not a perfect sight

Just their own face reflected in the night

Ah, but i'm trying so hard

Just to tell you it's now

And i'm gonna keep on trying

To tear it all away
