Ripped Apart

Verse

Fingers crack the brittle shell

I peel the layers back

Something warm beneath the bone

Something I should not have found

Pre-Chorus

Rend the seam

Tear the thread

Rend the seam apart

Chorus

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Every fiber gives way

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I am what remains

Verse 2

Nails drag across the grain

Splitting what was whole

I never meant to see inside

I only meant to hold

Pre-Chorus

Snap the cord

Strip the skin

Snap the cord in two

Chorus

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Every fiber gives way

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I am what remains

Bridge

Sever

Sever

Sever the quiet thing

I did this

I did this

With my own two hands

Chorus

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Every fiber gives way

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I am what remains

Outro

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Verse 3

Cold claws comb the marrow clean

Picking at the gristle strands

What I tore I cannot mend

What I held I crushed to sand

Pre-Chorus

Grind the knot

Break the braid

Grind the knot to naught

Chorus

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Every fiber gives way

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I am what remains

Post-Chorus

Torn

Torn

Torn (torn)

Torn (torn)

Guitar Solo

Verse 4

Rust blooms red along the cut

Where the threads came loose and gave

I dug deep for something whole

Pulled up nothing but a grave

Pre-Chorus

Split the husk

Crack the cage

Split the husk alone

Chorus

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Every fiber gives way

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I am what remains

Bridge 2

Pry it

Pry it

Pry the soft thing wide

No one

No one

No one made me do it

Breakdown

Rend

(rend)

Sever

(sever)

Rend

(rend)

Scatter

(scatter)

Chorus

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Every fiber gives way

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I am what remains

Outro

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

Nothing left to hold

Ripped apart

Ripped apart

I let it go cold
