Tear Me Down (feat. Ava Max)
Joyner Lucas
So, I let the winds pile up
And your words fall down (ooh-ooh, ooh)
Said you didn't want me then
I don't need you now
And I really want to leave but I'm too far, and I'm too lost
Want to let go but it's too hard want a new start, got to look inside me but I'm too scarred
Never knew the pain could be this sad
I don't want to die young, so I live fast
I never knew a heartbreak could be this bad (uh)
I'm afraid to be in love, then I know why (yeah)
I can never trust what I don't buy (uh)
When I feel like giving up, then I don't try (yeah)
When I feel like taking drugs, so I don't cry (uh)
Got me feeling like a dove when it don't fly (don't fly)
But I get depressed and you just leave (uh)
I can never get rest, to close by (yeah)
I don't feel at my best when it's just me (uh)
Every time I get bad, then it get worse
When it get worse, then you hit first (uh)
Got me living on the edge, then I'm just cursed (yeah)
Sick of tryna build a bridge just to get burned (uh)
Got me onto my head but I'm just hurt
Want to run but we just high (yeah)
We don't want to hear the truth so we just lie
But I only look at you like you're just mine (uh)
Said I only look at you like you're just mine (you're just mine)
But we got to heal, and my head fucked up don't know how to feel
When you tell me you in love with somebody else (man)
How you tell me you in love with somebody else? (That's crazy)
But you know that I need you (uh)
Got a better life with a stranger, but we both know I wanted it to be you
Goddamn
So, I let the winds pile up
And your words fall down (yeah, ooh-ooh)
Said you didn't want me then (ooh)
I don't need you now (ooh)
We don't have to love forever
I thought that you would love me better
Why would you go tear me up just to take me down? (Ooh-ooh)
Where the fuck do I go when I'm too lost, when I'm too far?
Want to let it go but it's too hard, and it's too dark
Keep tally ho aside but it's too parched
I'll be saying things that you don't mean (yeah)
I feel like I'm asleep, but I don't dream
Just another nightmare, but I don't scream (yeah)
Every time we get rough, do we break up?
Every time that we fuck, do we make up? (Uh)
Every time we get drunk then it's dangerous (yeah)
Sick and tired of giving up but you gave us (uh)
I don't wanna give it up, but you made us (uh)
Then I get depressed when you just leave (yeah)
I can never get rest when I'm laid up
I don't feel at my best when it's just me (yeah)
You can see my heart bleed when you watch it (uh)
I can feel your heart leave in the process (uh)
And you only want leave when it's options (yeah)
But you only want me when it's toxic (yeah)
How you only want me when it's toxic? (Uh)
Type of shit can get dangerous (uh)
Had to deal my pain in phases
I done felt so much pain, that I'm painless (yeah)
And I know it's too late to save us, but we got to heal (yeah)
And my head fucked up don't know how to feel
When you tell me you in love with somebody else
How you tell me you in love with somebody else? (Yeah)
But you know that I need you
Now I got to build a life with a stranger (uh)
Both know that I wanted it to be you (damn)
So, I let the winds pile up (damn)
And your words fall down (oh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Said you didn't want me then (ooh-ooh)
I don't need you now (don't need you now)
We don't have to love forever
I thought that you would love me better
Why would you go tear me up just to take me down? (Take me down)
So, I let winds pile up
And your words fall down (ooh-ooh)
