[Intro – Ambient guitars, soft toms, low hum bass
Reverb-laced guitar harmonics swell; slight tremolo pulse.]
(Oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 1]
I find you in the morning haze,
Through the static of my mind,
You spill like light across my face,
Burning slow, but undefined.
You pull me close, then drift away,
Keep me breathing through the gray,
Whisper things I can’t replay.
(Oooooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
You know the way it drags you down,
Spins you ‘round, and breaks the ground,
It breaks you just to make you see,
How deep the cut can really be.
[Chorus – Full band enters, distorted warmth]
Oh, it tears you up,
Oh, it tears you up.
Like a wave that never ends,
It pulls you under once again.
Oh, it tears you up,
Oh, it tears you up.
[Verse 2 – Slightly heavier drums, chorus guitar delay builds]
I walk beneath a bleeding sky,
Every truth’s a fading line,
I chase the ghosts I can’t deny,
They keep on changing shape and sign.
Every sin I meant to keep,
Comes awake when I should sleep,
There’s a cost in going deep.
(Oooooooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
You know the way it makes you crawl,
Shows you nothing, takes it all,
You know the way it calls your name,
Then leaves you empty, still the same.
[Chorus – More emotional, double-tracked vocals]
Oh, it tears you up,
Oh, it tears you up.
Like a wound that never heals,
Like the silence that you feel.
Oh, it tears you up,
Oh, it tears you up.
[Instrumental Bridge 1 – Guitar Solo, sustained melody]
[Lead guitar sings a mournful, bending melody.
Slow vibrato, delay trails, ambient swells.
Bass rises subtly; drums slow and widen]
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Ooooooooh)
.
[Bridge – Soft Vocals, Dreamlike Ambience]
And it’s okay, it goes this way,
The line it twists, then fades away,
It keeps you walking, keeps you blind,
But somehow you still survive.
[Instrumental Bridge 2 – Dynamic Swell, Crescendo]
[Starts clean: clean arpeggio guitar and bass pulse.
Builds into distorted climax: drums rise to full crash, fuzz guitar harmonics scream.
Guitar feedback echoes, bass drones a low root note.
Emotional intensity peaks before final chorus.]
[(Think: the instrumental catharsis moment — similar to the outro build in “Black” by Pearl Jam or the solo bloom in “Hurt” by Nine Inch Nails [live version])]
[Final Chorus – Full, emotional crescendo]
Oh, it tears you up,
Oh, it tears you up.
Every time you think you’ve won,
You find it’s only just begun.
Oh, it tears you up,
Oh, it tears you up.
Yeah… tears you up.
[Outro – Fading guitars, distant echo vocal]
Keeps you walking, never shout,
Tears you up, then spits you out...
Spits you out....
Tears you up, then spits you out
