Life is rich
But it's way too short
You make a lot of money
But you just want more
I don't need the pain
Right here in my heart
But I hate every minute
When we're so far apart
♪
It was love in a minute
It was love in a flash
It brings me no pleasure
Just a stab in the back
It brings me no comfort
It brings me no peace
It's a weight on my shoulder
It's a fatal disease
So don't tear me up
I don't ever wanna see your picture again
And don't poison my blood
I don't ever wanna see your face here no more
♪
Wanna finish it quick
Wanna finish it clean
Don't wanna be bitter
I don't wanna be mean
I feel like we're driving
Down a dead-end street
Yeah, I've come so far
I wanna crash the car
I wanna land right on my feet
I said don't tear me up
I don't ever wanna see your picture again
I said don't tear me up
I don't ever wanna see your face here no more
But I dream of you constantly
You'll be my angel of light
And in the dark rooms of sleeplessness
You'll be my lover each night
♪
Life is a bitch
But it's way too short
Unlike a politician
It just can't be bought
But think about the tenderness
Think about the craziness
And if you ever wanna hate me come
And stick a knife right in my chest
I said don't tear me up
I don't ever wanna see your picture again
I said don't tear me up
I don't ever wanna see your face here no more
I said don't tear me up
I said don't tear me up
I said don't poison my blood
I don't ever wanna see your picture again
