Jealousy in front of me
Yet you don't want what I'm to be
Steel, cold knife inside my back

Just turn your head
I fade to black


(Chorus)
Tear me down
Tear me down

If it makes you feel better
Tear me down
You'll just tear me down

Ooh, if it makes you feel better

Bitterness and bigotry

As if you want what I'm to be
I have to be
No going back

I'll be damned
I'll fade to black


Acquaintances and enemies
Sickening sweet no friend to me
Killing me for what you lack

Afraid of me
I'll fade to black.


. . . and I'll continue to $#&@ with you. I've come back. Better believe I'm back and I'll continue to $#&@ with you.
