Tore Me Inside

Robert Schilling


Every time we find someone 
It's minutes lost to the silent gun 
She has gone and found someone 
Someone like me 
Every time we find someone 
It's a story told in foreign words 
Only vowels and phony slurs 
Something in C 

We don't need the feeling from the outside 
Tore Me Inside, with the feeling that you really want to care 
That you care, that you care 

Every time we find someone 
It's money lost and pocket cloth 
She has gone and done someone 
Someone like me 
Every time we find someone 
It's funny jokes and false approach 
Only hurts for Monday's work 
Four days to bleed 

On every stage we play it tears, tears me away 
On every stage we play it tears, tears me away 
What are you trying to say 
What are you trying to say, today? 

Every time we find someone 
It's basement talk and nonsense calls 
She forgot to call someone 
Someone like me 
Every time we find someone 
It's like we're searching for a job 
Better search for better work 
You won't find me
