Fear Lyrics by Cory Wells

How to Tear Apart the Ones You Love

2017

[Verse 1]
Tell me that you love me
And I'll pretend you're crazy
And everyone seems to hate me when I'm not around
But that won't ever faze me
'Cause I'm doing me all on my own
When all you wanted was to hold my hand
But honestly
I ran away
But I'm coming home

[Chorus]
I fear the day you're not around
Searched the car and I've checked the bed
But these empty sheets are all I've found
And I've cried for you to come around
'Cause I hate this empty sound filling your space
Can't take your place

[Verse 2]
Hoping that you'll take me
As I am, it's all I know
Bring back the time before I wrote the book on How to Tear Apart the Ones You Love
And I'll
Pretend that I'm okay
Imagination just can't take the pain away
So this one's on me
'Cause I ran away
But I'm coming home

[Chorus]
I fear the day you're not around
Searched the car and I've checked the bed
But these empty sheets are all I've found
And I've cried for you to come around
'Cause I hate this empty sound filling your space
Can't take your place

[Bridge]
What I'd give to see your face
I've made some big mistakes
But at the time, they were right for me
And I need your bed
And I miss the nights we never slept
The clothes we never kept
On
They're never on
I hope you kept the light on
'Cause I'm coming home

[Chorus]
I fear the day you're not around
Searched the car and I've checked the bed
But these empty sheets are all I've found
And I've cried for you to come around
'Cause I hate this empty sound filling your space
Can't take your place
