Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Tear apart, my heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
But I am more than skin and bones
I am
I am more
Looking inside
Through a different lense
Seeing my life
But missing the point of it
We're all one heart beat from heaven
We're all one heart beat from heaven
So tear apart, my heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
But I am more than skin and bones
I am
I am more
Life, it takes your breath away
And doesn't give it back
Even if you ask
Even if you plead
Get down on your knees
It's out of your control
Where you gonna go?
Life, it takes your breath away
And doesn't give it back
Even if you ask
So tear apart, my heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
But I am more than skin and bones
I am
I am more
Tear apart, my heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
But I am more than skin and bones
I am
I am more
