Lyrics

VERSE
There was a time when all was not fine
But at least we could say we were tryin’
Now gone are our dreams, ripped up at the seams
’Cause the love we once had now is dyin’

CHORUS
We’re pullin’ ourselves apart
Tearin’ holes in each other’s hearts
Let’s stop pullin’ ourselves apart

VERSE
Will there ever come the day
When we’ll stop all of these destructive ways?
Is everything preordained
Or do we have the strength to change?

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
The bottom line, baby, is that the buck stops here
Can't blame everything on reasons like doubt and fear
The past is a shame; let's talk about how to change
Let’s let tomorrow be our new year

VERSE
Is life here on Earth just like the universe
Everything always pullin’ apart
Or could we reverse that trend here on earth
And forever pull together, heart to heart?

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Let’s stop pullin’ ourselves apart
