Torn lyrics - Hands Like Houses

(originally by Ednaswap)

I thought I saw a girl brought to life,
She was warm, she came around
And she was dignified.
She showed me what it was to cry.

I couldn't be the man to adore.
You don't seem to know,
Or seem to care what my heart is for.
But I don't know you anymore.

There's nothing where you used to lie,
The conversation has run dry.
That's what's going on,
Nothing's right, I'm torn.

I'm all out of faith,
This is how I feel.
I'm cold and I am shamed,
Lying naked on the floor.
Illusion never changed,
Into something real.
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn.
You're a little late, I'm already torn.

So I guess the fortune teller's right,
I should have seen
Just what was there
And not some holy light.

It crawled beneath my veins and now
I don't care, I had no luck,
I don't miss it all that much.
There's just so many things
That I can touch, I'm torn.

I'm all out of faith,
This is how I feel.
I'm cold and I am shamed,
Lying naked on the floor.
Illusion never changed,
Into something real.
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn.
You're a little late, I'm already torn.

Torn.

There's nothing where you used to lie,
My inspiration has run dry.
That's what's going on,
Nothing's right, I'm torn.

I'm all out of faith,
This is how I feel.
I'm cold and I am shamed,
Lying naked on the floor.
Illusion never changed,
Into something real.
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn.

I'm all out of faith,
This is how I feel.
I'm cold and I am shamed,
Bound and broken on the floor.
Illusion never changed,
Into something real.
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn.
