Lyrics
We’re tearing it all down
We are dismantling everything.
The walls that you’ve built
The barriers or defenses that you constructed.
Prepare for the fall now
Prepare for the consequences or downfall now.
The power is shifting
The control or influence is changing.
Away from the games that you play
Moving away from the manipulative activities you engage in.
I won’t stay, releasing it all now
I won't endure it any longer, releasing everything now.
The hearts that you break have a name
The people whose hearts you've shattered have an identity.
And when they break
When those hearts break.
You don’t get to have a say
You don't get a say in the aftermath.
But I’ve seen this before
Despite witnessing this scenario previously.
Following, living denial
Following a life in denial.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in such circumstances.
And I know we need more
Acknowledging the need for more.
Fighting this fire with fire
Confronting challenges by responding in kind.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in this situation.
Why are you leaving the hatred within
Asking why negative emotions persist.
Ignoring the reasons, but under the skin
Disregarding reasons but harboring resentment beneath the surface.
So much pain you can see
The visible manifestation of much pain.
And there’s no apology
No apology offered for the pain caused.
We’re tearing it all down
Continuing to break down everything.
The hearts that you break have a name
The individuals affected by heartbreak have an identity.
And when they break
When those hearts break.
You don’t get to have a say
You don't have a say in the aftermath.
But I’ve seen this before
Despite witnessing this scenario previously.
Following, living denial
Following a life in denial.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in such circumstances.
And I know we need more
Acknowledging the need for more.
Fighting this fire with fire
Confronting challenges by responding in kind.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in this situation.
Wielding your love like a hand grenade
Using love as a destructive force.
Just goes to show, just goes to show
Emphasizing that this behavior is expected.
Don’t be surprised when I have to say
No surprise when the necessity to leave is declared.
You gotta go, you gotta go
Explicitly stating the inevitability of departure.
Wielding your love like a hand grenade
Using love as a destructive force.
Just goes to show, just goes to show
Emphasizing that this behavior is expected.
Don’t be surprised when I have to say
No surprise when the necessity to leave is declared.
You gotta go, you gotta go
Explicitly stating the inevitability of departure.
But I’ve seen this before
Despite witnessing this scenario previously.
Following, living denial
Following a life in denial.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in such circumstances.
And I know we need more
Acknowledging the need for more.
Fighting this fire with fire
Confronting challenges by responding in kind.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in this situation.
But I’ve seen this before
Despite witnessing this scenario previously.
Fighting this fire with fire
Confronting challenges by responding in kind.
So how can I, how can I smile
Questioning how one can smile in this situation.
