Larry Gallagher - Torn Apart Lyrics
In my last life a couple years agoI wrote an ode to a distant friend I’ll never really knowResponding to my fear that she was falling through the netIn words I don’t remember and I cannot forgetShe said it’s kind of you to ask of meBut my legs still move and my eyes still seeAnd this job I have lets me use my brainThey treat me well so I can’t complainI get out on weekends and I’m grateful for my friendsAnd it feels like a real life is just beyond the bandI’m alright, what can I say?And I’m torn apart every dayWell I read those words, they left no chainsCause I was never the source of her painAnd it came that time when I had no doubtThought that I had discovered a real way outAnd it seemed like such a wasteAnd I spun out of control in this line of soulsWilling to burn the years awayBeing torn apart every dayBut times change, worlds endThat’s not newsAnd what was once clear is once again confusedPeople stop me on the streetThey ask if I'm okayI'm not sure how much they want to hearOr how much I want to saySo I say it's kind of you to ask of meBut my legs still move and my eyes still seeAnd this job I have lets me use my brainThey treat me well so I can't complainI get out on weekends and I’m grateful for my friendsIt feels like a real life is just around the bandAnd what I feel, what I don’t sayIs that I’m torn apart every day
