Torn Lyrics by The Devil Said Jump

All Shook Up

2024

I’d hate to run into anyone
Who called me by my old name
Tell them that I lost it all
That I’ll never again be the same
That now I sing to make my dad proud
And I smile to look like my mom
I’m a daughter of the dirt
I carry my home with me like a song
But I wasn’t made for quiet days
I’d rather try my best and fail
Maybe I’ll take the train to nowhere
Maybe I’ll ride the rails
How many eyes that look like mine
Have called me begging
Megan, please come home
I tore my heart in half so long ago
And now I’m torn
Between a lonely city life
And my home
And when she calls
Everything in me
Wants to go
But I don’t belong
I’d hate to run into anyone
Who knows I’m living a lie
Tell them that I’m not ashamed, I did
What I had to do to survive
But I don’t call my family
I’m afraid they’ll never be proud of me
That I traded my name
To be broke and alone on Christmas Eve
I really tried to bat my eyes
To compromise, to make myself small
But I couldn’t bend, not for no man
Not even for my mom
And now I’m torn
Between a lonely city life
And my home
And when she calls
Everything in me
Wants to go
But I don’t belong
Well maybe I’ll always be lonely
And I’ll always need to be free
Maybe they’r’ll always be
A little bit of both inside me
Racing against the Eastern tide
Like wild horses runnin' in the wind
My family’s always been kind
I know they’ll understand
If I hand them my pieces
They put me back together again
And so I’m torn
Between a lonely city life
And my home
And when she calls
Everything in me
Wants to go
But I don’t belong
