Tear Me Down

Lyrics

[Chorus: Ava Max] So I let the winds pile up and your words fall down Said you didn't want me then, I don't need you now [Verse 1: Joyner Lucas] And I really wanna leave, but I'm too far And I'm too lost Wanna let go, but it's too hard Want a new start Gotta look inside me, but I'm too scarred Never knew the pain could be this sad I don't wanna die young, so I live fast 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 givin' up, then I don't try (Yeah) Kinda feel like takin' drugs so I don't cry (Uh) Got me feelin' like a dove when it don't fly (Don't fly) But I get dеpressed when you just lеave (Uh) I can never get rest 'til you close by (Yeah) I don't feel at my best when it's just me (Uh) Every time it get bad, then it get worse When it get worse, then you hit first (Uh) Got me livin' on the edge and I'm just cursed (Yeah) Sick of tryna build a bridge just to get burned (Yeah) Got me all in my head, but I'm just hurt Wanna run, but we just hide (Yeah) We don't wanna 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) [Pre-Chorus: Joyner Lucas] But we gotta 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) When you know that I need you? (Uh) Now I gotta build a life with a stranger We both know that I wanted it to be you Goddamn [Chorus: Ava Max & Joyner Lucas] So I let the winds pile up and your words fall down (Yeah) Said you didn't want me then, I don't need you now (Joyner, Joyner) 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? [Verse 2: Joyner Lucas] Where the fuck do I go when I'm too lost? When I'm too far? Wanna let it go, but it's too hard And it's too dark Keep tellin' your side, but it's two parts Hope you're sayin' things that you don't mean (Yeah) I feel like I'm 'sleep, but I don't dream Just another nightmare, but I don't scream (Yeah) Every time it get rough, then we break up Every time that we fuck, then we make up (Uh) Every time we get drunk, then it's dangerous (Yeah) Sick and tired of givin' up, but you gave us (Uh) I don't wanna give it up, but you made us (Uh) And 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 wan' 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 with 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 (Yeah) [Pre-Chorus: Joyner Lucas] But we gotta heal 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) When you know that I need you? Now I gotta build a life with a stranger (Uh) We both know that I wanted it to be you (Damn) [Chorus: Ava Max & Joyner Lucas] So I let the winds pile up and your words fall down (Ooh) Said you didn't want me then, 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, yeah) So I let the winds pile up and your words fall down (Ooh, uh) Said you didn't want me then, I don't need you now (Don't need you now) We don't have to love forever (Uh) Just hoped that you would love me so much better Why would you go tear me up just to take me down?
