Torn To Tatters Lyrics by Dave Nachmanoff

Custom Songs

2014

[Verse 1]
Eight miles down the drain
In the heartland of my head
Was the image of your love
Now there's cold calm instead
It's true you cracked it long before
But with a clean hard punch
Your fingers barely ailed or ached
Yet all my bones are crunched
I guess you had to call the case
Well, anyway you did
Poisoned arrow
Deathly narrow
I can't believe it, can't deny
It's fraying bit by bit
[Chorus A]
Don't leave me, babe
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me here
So far to go
[Verse 2]
A heap of days ago
A bunch of miles down south
Raindrops dripping down my nose
Heading for my mouth
Listened to the sirens singing
In some heavy sky
Me dipped 'n' drowning, deaf and blind
A robin tried to fly
I should have seen that perfect gale
It came in for the kill
Fleeting down
Wearing frown
We were not going home that night
And surely never will
[Chorus A]
Don't leave me, babe
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me here
So far to go
[Chorus B1]
Don't drop away
Desert my line
Disintegrate
Don't flaw my spine
[First Electric Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Marooned, abandoned, torn to tatters
Banned, betrayed and double-dealt
Love is everything that matters
Love means nothing in this melt
Until the rust of time comes crumbling
Love is but the only weld
[Verse 3]
A vigil up the roof
With a frantic view around
I keep position, though I know
Backwards you are bound
No frequency, no seismic bash
Has since revealed your name
These signals from inside my head
The photos without frame
I keep on eating belladonnas
And slowly turn to blue
This parable
Unbearable
My boat is scuttled, back is broken
Hope that yours is, too
[Chorus A]
Don't leave me, babe
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me here
So far to go
[Chorus B2]
I'll drop away
Yield down the line
Disintegrate
Back off my spine!
[Chorus C]
I sense your smile
In no way near
The tide is in
Bereft of fear
[Additional Lines]
I'll leave you here
I'll leave you here
[Second Electric Guitar Solo]
